These day's I mostly shoot SxS's. But years ago it was Mossberg 500's. If they are better or worse than the /rem 870 I I couldn't say, Only ever had one 870 and never shot it. Gave it to my son. Wait had two. 870 Special Field. Great grouse gun but don't care for it for anything else. You want a nice pump, my mod 37 is about as nice as it get's, mine is an old 16ga.
