RE: What gun do you use and why?
 
I use a Winchester Super X2. I call it my "Whuppin' Stick". 24' barrel and chambered to handle 3.5' shells. It is very similar to a Browning Gold. The reasons I chose it is because it has a good recoil dampening system, it holds incredibly tight patterns with its standard Invector choke tubes, it has removable Hi-Vis sights, and is very confortable to shoot. I used to use a Rem 870 for turkeys, but it will knock your lungs loose if you send a 3.5 through it.

Ha! Thanks Rebel. Always nice to meet another "Brother in the Cause". You are one of very few people that can actually identify the Bonnie Blue Flag. Most people just think I'm a Cowboys fan.

I use a Benelli M2, 26" barrell. It is the shotgun I use for everything, so that is why I use it.:)

I'm going to shoot a Remington SP-10, and a 870 SuperMag. I like the SP-10, because the recoil is less than the SuperMag, but it's quite a bit heavier gun. I use a Jellyhead in the SuperMag, and a Rhino in the SP-10, with both guns shooting Nitro ammo. Both guns have dense even patterns out to50 yds.

Mossberg 835 Turkey edition. Winchester extended elite 3.5" 5's. Patterned to 80 yards. Dropped a tom last year at 68 yards stone dead. I wont shoot a tom 25 yards or closer with this gun.

i absolutely LOVE my stoeger model 2000. works great for all the bird hunting i could ever do. me and my dad can kill a turkey out to 50 yards with the stock extra full choke right outta the box. fairly lightweight and barely any recoil since they are licensed to use benellis inertia system. its basically a benelli- $500

I might get bashed on this but i use a NEF Pardner Pump 12 ga. It was a preety cheap gun for only 250 bucks for a combo. I killed a deer with it this fall and shot a liongbeard with it last spring. Don't have much choice when your only teenager and can't just go out and buy a new gun.
