I like my Beretta 391 Urika
It has a 3" Chamber,, but its a 20 guage..

Like I said,, I like it,, Its very easy to carry,, it dont kick me, Ducks dont like it though,,kicks the heck outa them :)

P.S.
Now that I think about it,,, dont think I have ever used the 3 inch chamber in it either..

Gooser again.

Get a Beretta A400 with kick off. One thing about shooting, if you're worried about recoil you will miss your target.
I used to shoot a 10ga BPS and never felt the recoil. I'm so jacked at birds working all that goes to the wayside.

Was in the same boat last week and went with the Beretta A400. Thought I got a hell of a deal for $1,450 w/ free shipping. Cant post links yet but here is the address. They already went up $50. Whatever u decide look at these two sites and you can come across some deals. Good luck!

I have been a Remington owner for many years, have a 12 and 20 Ga matched set of Skeet B 1100's that will never leave here. My workhorse is an 1187 which has shot many birds over the years. I got to try a super vinci a few months ago, liked it a lot, very low recoil, breaks apart so easy for cleaning ( one gripe about the 1187), It is significantly lighter than the 1187, so I was over swinging on birds due to weight diff. Overall I did like the SV, but price for one is unreal.

I have either tried or owned most semi's, my SBE2 was my go to gun but not any longer. the new Beretta A400 xtreme has to be the lightest shooting gun I have ever used, can even stay on birds when shooting, LUV this gun and not hard to look at either. Once I got it fitted, made all the difference, got to luv new technology :) , if you ever get the chance try one! 4 of my buddies picked one up after shooting mine

I have both the SBEII and the Beretta A400 Extrema. Both guns feel about the same as far as recoil goes. I finally got the Beretta fitted properly and am shooting it on par with my SBEII. Even though both have 3.5" chambers the only time I shoot 3.5" is for Geese or Turkey. My 14yr old son is shooting the SBEII now and I'm shooting the A400. I really don't have a preference of one over the other. It all depends upon the game being hunted. Waterfowl is a toss up. Turkey and upland game it's my SBEII because of the 24" barrel.
