I've been looking at a new Semi and can't decide which one , I've kinda haven't down to the A5 and the beretta a350 xtrema in mind , anybody here have experience with either or both or any other guns that might be nice my budget is around 1100-1400
 
I have a benelli SBE2 and I am completely happy. It fires the lightest target rounds to the heaviest 3 /15 in ch magnums without a problem.

What do you want the gun for?
 
It's pretty much a duck gun and that's it , it'sa price that's the big thing I know guys says sb11 and a400 but 1500 is my top end, and I'm not too bothered with shooting 3-1/2
 
I was sold on an a5 until I started reading about all the ejection problems they're having. I went with a sx3 after.

I've got 2 of them. One 3", one 3.5". Nice guns, I haven't had any hiccups with either of mine. They run anything from 1oz1/8 loads up....They are kinetic drive, so you do need to have them mounted well when you slap the trigger :)
 
Beretta 1301 Comp
I have one of these with the 24 inch barrel. It's basically a race gun version of the A400.
If you take the time to review the features I'm sure you will be impressed.

Don't sweat the 24" barrel - I shot 23/25 on the trap field with it the first time out.
I also use it for 5 stand and it rocks on skeet.
It's a lot of fun and out of all my shotguns it's what I'd use first for hunting. It's light and fast handling and since it's a gas operated semi - the recoil is very mild.

It come's with a 13 inch length of pull for the tactical games, but it has the spacers to make it longer too.

I got mine from Wolverine Supply a few months ago.

I think it was around $1300

I have no regrets about buying this gun.

Amen, I got the 21" version, I find the price very reasonable, the gun itself is very reliable , soft recoil and shoots straight with slugs.
If you install the KickOff system stock ,it converts to a A400 series.
 
Do some price checking, the prices are all over. There are some very good deals out there. Make sure you know how the guns fit you. No fit no birds. I ended up with a like new SBE ll for 1400, could not tell it was shot. Best part was no GST ( gouge and screw tax). Good luck

Find a used Remington 1100 with chokes and three inch magnum.
You'll have money left over for shells...premium shells too no less.
But, the choice is ultimately yours.
