Well I went ahead and "pulled the trigger" on the Remington 887. I wanted the Benelli Supernova but it wasn't $200 nicer than the 887. Wanted the Realtree camo but I'm not a hunter, so i went with the regular black. got the 26" Barrel. $340 at Dick's Sporting goods right now, after the $30 instant rebate. cycled about 40 shells through it. seems smooth. It shoulders really nice. also came with a fiber optic front site. one green and one red that are interchangeable. and a red mid bead. I won't be able to shoot it till this weekend or maybe next.
