[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 206639, member: 2736"] This is like using a 223 for everthing from PD's to Cape buffalo A 410 would be great for grouse but not for turkeys or geese. You will need two shotguns for this type of shooting. My favorite type of shotgun is the over and under but for an all out *** kicker and name taker as Essnup suggested I would recomend the Xtrema 3 1/2 By Beretta for several reasons, As Essnup mentioned they shoot when nothing else will and they were purpose biult for 3 1/2" inch shells (Not a modified 3" as others did ) and best of all they will shoot all sizes of shells from 1oz trap loads to 3 1/2" -2 1/4oz turkey loads with out changing springs or pistons . I went looking for a waterfowl shotgun that would also double as a turkey gun and having hunted in arkansas with the same kind of hunters that treated theirs rough (Like walking in 4 or 5 feet of water with the shotgun slung over there sholder and half under water) and still function every time. They all said for this type of hunting only a Beretta semi auto or an 870 wingmaster pump would not let you down. So I bought one and proceeded to test the different shells in it and they were right I loaded mixed shells 2 3/4 dove, 1 3/8oz-2 3/4 duck loads, 3" 1 5/8oz high vellocity , 3" 1 7/8 oz turkey, 3 1/2" heavy shot,3" 2 1/4oz turkey and all sizes of buck shot and the **** thing did not fail to eject and feed all. The only thing I noticed was that when I shot the trap and dove loads I could hear the action work but could not hear anything when shooting the heavy loads. I still use an over and under for dove, quail, grouse, pheasant ,etc. but when I go duck,goose, turkey and in some cases where the land owner doesent allow rifles, Deer and hogs I will allways carry the beretta and a mixed bag of shells.
