The Browning A-bolt 12 gauge is a better gun for very similar $ IMHO. Smooth as butta and scary accurate, not to mention way more kinetic energy delivered on target.

On several occasions I wanted to toss it in the woods because of feeding and ejection issues. Very accurate. I'm shooting an 870 slug gun now and it's deadly. Feed them the accutips.
