I have a beretta A400 and love it. Any gun in that price range will be good. It's just a matter of finding the one that fits u best.

Check out the versa max. I wouldn't trade it for any gun on the market. No jamming, no recoil, it's a real comfortable gun to shoulder and shoot. I know it's a remington but I've used mine pretty hard this past season and I'm a fan.

I've always owned Remington's but haven't heard to many good things about the versa max. I shot one this past season and I liked it.

A400.... it has shot everything I've put through it....cycles fast and with the kick off it is a smooth shooting gun.

Unbelievable. I got my A400 Xtreme this year and it shoots the lightest load with no problem. When it ejects, it really flings the shells out with authority. With the design of the action, it's also self cleaning and requires minimal oil lubrication. Even after shooting Black Clouds all year it shockingly was very clean. I've shot a lil over as case through mine and have not had a single issue. I tore the entire gun apart after the season, wiped in clean, put a thin layer of oil on to store and it was all done in 20 minutes. The really cool part....shoot a heavy load 3.5 and feel the difference from what u shoot now. It feels like a low brass shell in any other Pump at least :grin:

If your spending up to $1600 you wil be fine. It's all a matter of which feels good to you. I have a SBE 2 and love it. I shoot light target up to the heavy stuff. Clean it after the season. It has been dunked a few times and still fired flawless.

I love my maxus!!! After breakin it will eat anything you put in it. I was shooting an 870 super mag and it was pretty brutal, i can't believe the difference. Only thing about the maxus is you have to make sure your friends don't flip the magazine cut off switch on you, you will shoot 1 shoot and be wondering what happened lol

Well I know the versa max had recall issues but I think they have to bugs worked out. I'm glad I got it besides the maxus

i will probably be the owner of a maxus come fall. couple buddies have them and love them. as for now, my gold hunter with a camo sock will do. either way if you are spending over $1k, i would go with browning or benelli
