Default RE: Mossberg, Winchester, Remington? Best Deer Shotgun?

I have an Ithaca pump and a Win. Super X semi. Pump is too noisy, IMO. Win. is nice but I can't get a rifled barrel for it. I have friends with a Rem. 870, auto and pump, and that seems the gun to go with. Look for a set that comes with a turkey barrel and rifled barrel. If it's legal, mount a fixed scope on it. The gun is deadly out past 100 yards. Although I've seen it knock a deer down at 125+ yards I wouldn't make a habit of it. Again the pump rattles a little so I prefer the solid fore stock of a semi.
