Beretta A350 Extrema. I have put around 2500 rounds of waterfowl/target/turkey loads through it over the last 4 years with zero hiccups. If I had to replace it I’d get an A400. I prefer having my safety on the front end of the trigger guard.

Most of the guys I hunt with run Benelli SBE2 or SBE3.  The ones that aren't running those run the Beretta A400.  I see a few folks running the Maxus or A-5.  A step down from the above mentioned would be a Winchester SX3/SX4 or a Franchi.
I run all Benelli's.  Easy to clean and tear down.  Inertia system is pretty simple vs. a gas system.  My current SBE2 that I run probably has close to 10k rounds through it and just shy of 3k birds with it.  It will go to Rob Roberts in the off season for an overhaul.
yup...SBEII...awesome gun. Great to have the shims that came with it to point where I see...super easy to tear down

I've had good luck with my browning maxus. Never had any issues with it freezing or jamming. The only time it wouldn't cycle was when i was shooting clay pigeons one time with really cheap 2 3/4 target loads.

Just bought one of these today for my daughter.  Cabela's has the Beretta A400 Xtreme Plus TrueTimber Prairie Camo on sale right now for $200 off.  https://www.cabelas.com/shop/en/beretta-a400-xtreme-plus-semi-auto-shotgun-in-truetimber-prairie

I have a Beretta AL2 I've had for a longgg time that has been a workhorse without giving me a single issue and I've run everything through it from trap loads to heavy shot.  My old dentist had an AL2 identical to mine and he ran tons of steel shot through his and last I knew, it was still going strong.

There are lots of good choices out there. A gun that fits you is the most important thing. Browning, Beretta, Benelli, Winchester, Franchi are all good choices. I love my Versamax but Remington doesn’t make it, anymore.
:yeah:
