I've been shooting a mossberg 835 for a few years and it patterns awesome but I always like to buy new guns so I'm looking for another gun to take to the woods in the spring. What are some good options for a reasonable price?

Izzyjoe

I don't know what you can reasonable, but when they add turkey to the gun, the price doubles! I'd think a mossberg 535 Ats would be nice.

ThunderChickenGetter

By reasonable I mean in the 600-700 range. I'm not looking to spend 1000 on one

Stoeger would fit that bill. I like my stoeger, but I love my browning.

I have just added the 870 SM mentioned above with23 in. Barrel and sure shot stock with adjustable sights.  Got it shoring 3 in. LB #6 with an Indian Creek choke

Probably aint gonna get anything that patterns like your 835 has the ability too. Maybe a 935?!

If you're shooting an 835 you prob have the best already. Lots of good guns out there n with today's loads/chokes you can get em all to shoot decently. I picked up a Ithaca Turkeyslayer brand new for 600 on gun broker n that gun shoots pretty good w limited messin w it.

Ended up selling my 835 to a good buddy that was in need of a turkey gun but I just ordered a 870 Supermag with a 26" barrel on bottomland. Going to either put a jebs, sumtoy, or Indian creek on it and shoot hevi 7's

That gun is wicked with a Jellyhead .660 or .665 and Longbeard 5 or 6's.

Spending 600-700 I would get a beretta outlander. Nice gun for the money. This year I'm hunting with this gun and Jebs .655/ Hevi 13 3/2/7's and 3/2/6's

I've always said I wouldn't say never but I don't believe I would ever part with my 835.  If I did, I would probably go with a 20.  I've always thought about building a 20 gauge, that was a Shooter.

Ericbrooks

I wouldn't  spend anything and keep shooting your 835. A new gun isn't gonna kill them any deader!!

Hope your 870 sm in bottom land is straight last 2 new ones we had in shop the barrel was way left center of the taps and had to be sent back.  Could have shot around corners with em.
