Hi everyone, I'm new to the sport any would love some help!

I'm looking for advice in buying a new Tactical shotgun, I really like the looks but want some practicallity out it ( grouse, clay's ).......
I really wanted the Benelli SuperNova TAC, (http://www.benelliusa.com/shotguns/benelli_supernova_tactical.php)
But with a 18.5'' barrel and a fixed cylinder choke i've heared i wouldn't be able to hit a clay or shoot (and be able to eat) a bird/partridge/grouse........ or could I with a different barrel (if they even sell them) or the right shot with a tight pattern? I really love the features of this gun!
If not, I'm also looking at the following: !any help one these would be great! Are the weatherby shotguns any good??
MODEL 870™ EXPRESS® TACTICAL : http://www.remington.com/products/firearms/tactical/shotguns/model-870-express-tactical-a-tacs-camo.aspx
Weatherby PA-459TR :

MOSSBERG 500 or 535 TACTICAL :theres a couple....

P.S. are those Dominion Arms Grizzly Mag fed Tacticals any good??
 
Go for the 870 - lots of aftermarket goodness and very reliable. Get a regular open choke barrel so you can shoot slugs with ability to add chokes for diffrent things like clays and fowl hunting. And remember rifled slugs in a non rifled barrel, and non rifled slugs in a rifled barrel.
 
to me is sounds like your going for looks more then practiality. go 26-28in barrel with full choke and knock the heads off grouse. and cylinder choke for skeet. if you can get two guns (1 for show and 1 for go) youll be laughing
 
Go with the mossberg 500 combo. Gun is lighter and at least as reliable as the 870 and for $300 it comes with 2 barrels, the 18.5" and the 28" that are easy to change out. This way its like getting 2 shotguns out of the deal, the short tactical and the longer clay/bird gun.
