I just picked up a Stoeger M3500, couldn't resist the price. pretty much going to be used as a waterfowl gun. i have shot several boxes of light loads through it and am loving it so far. Do any of ya'll have this gun? opinions on it?

SumToy

Congrads on the new gun.  I have had a few of them in and they shoot good.  Got a friend with one that will not shoot low brass junk shells.  Other then that one they all good.  Throw the turkey choke that came in it away go get you a aftermarket one of some kind if you want to turkey hunt. 
Tell us just how dead do you want them to be and we will see if we can get that for you.

CASH

A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands, love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper; his hands remember the rifle.

They do but have seen that most of them swell up and get hard to take out.   I will be glad to help you or point in the way of folks that can.

Were you shooting 3 inches or 3.5 and which was better magblends or hevi 7#?

 Like Renolds243 i also had awesome results with a sumtoy .650 and 3" magblends out of my vinci. If I was strictly shooting htl I mite go to a .655 -.660 to open it up a little,with the .650 I was getting over 220 in the ten at 40 yds with 3" magblends.For Waterfowl i'm running a sumtoy fowl play Lite mod and my son is using a sumtoy air traffic control LM choke,both  shoot excellent patterns and we are very happy with them.I have also heard the hevi shot waterfowl tubes shoot real well.I usually shoot kent faststeel 3" #2s -#4s and my son uses black clouds #3s -#4s with his air traffic control.I also Shoot a trulock black cloud full and it shoots good too.Congrats on the new gun!.......ward
