If you looking to spend around $700, get an 11-87 or Versa Max(I've never heard of that one). If you looking to spend $1000, get a Browning Maxus/Winchester SX3. If you looking to spend $1500, get a Benelli SBE II or Super Vinci/Beretta A400. Can't go wrong with any of them. I have hunted with or around all of them and have seen very few malfunctions. All of them will shoot 2 3/4-3 1/2s.

And of course whichever one "feels the best".

Got rid of my 11-87 Supermag because every time I turned around I was replacing $100 parts - trigger assembly, action bar assembly and finally when the breech bolt cracked I got rid of it. Bought a Beretta A300 for $800 and couldn't be happier.

I've had my 11-87 for 19 yrs,for a few years put it thru absolute hell,never had a problem,jam or misfire. Might have gotten lucky but I've been happy with it. Have not shot the Versa max yet,but $1200.00 is a nice chunk of change

Beretta 390 is also a solid gun in this price range.
