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.
