I'd go 28 on the barrels. I think for waterfowl you'll get a smoother swing balance.

I like 26 inch but seems like most on the shelves are 28. I have an A300 and a SX3 and both are good guns. Saw new ones (sx4)this week for $700 and $650 for the A300. The browning silver can be had for about $1k and the M2 isnt much higher. You cant go wrong with any of those. Since the Stoegers have gone up in price I'm not as much a fan. I'd just rather have the Beretta if they costs are similar. And they are pretty close now. Probably going to a store to hold them all and go from there, if theyre all "good".

I have an A300 outlander in 12 gauge and an A300 ultima in 20 gauge. Both have had ALOT of rounds through them with zero malfunctions.

I bought a m2 and a weatherby element.
Both are solid guns and function as they should.
Bout a 500$ difference in the two and not much of a difference in shooting them.
I prefer a shorter barrel

interested in getting 2 new shotguns (sort of matching pair of 12 and 20ga) semi auto in the $500 to 1100 range
looking at stoeger, berretta, winchester etc. whats yalls thoughts and likes (on other brands too)
also 26 vs 28"??
thought there was an old thread similar to this, couldn't find it. thanks Out of those 3 , the Berretta in an A300 is going to be hard to beat. And I'm partial to a 26 inch barrel. But that's a personal preference thing.

I have a Beretta A300 Outlander in 12 gauge and it is a lot of shotgun for the money. I consider it one of the best values on the shotgun market.

Benelli m2, if you want quality. Buy once cry once. Benelli just doesn't fit everyone. Great guns, but I personally don't shoot them well, Brownings either. Shotguns are not one size fits all for sure. I wouldn't buy a Benelli without shooting one first, well actually, I wouldn't buy any shotgun without shooting one first. So never mind. :-)
