I'm just a bit curious why you are wanting to use a tactical shotgun for hunting turkeys?
It ain't the size of the gun but the placement of the bullet.

Nothing Wrong with Mossberg’s; they have improved their firearms by leaps and bounds, to the point that the US Military carries their shotguns. It’s a personnel preference thing.
+1

but I like the remington also

I’m going to “Assume” that the tactical shotgun question came from my comment about the US Military using Mossberg shotguns.

It just might be the wave of the further: Pump action, some are able to shoot 3 ½ shells, adjustable length of pull, short barrel, interchangeable chokes, pistol grip, Picatinny rail system, Good iron sights easy target viewing.

As I thought about your question:
I could not find a problem with the idea.
Pump action- personnel choice.
3 ½ shell- good choice.
Adjustable length of pull- ability to shoot easily from different positions and adjustable for heavy or light layers of clothing.
Short barrel- less movement visible.
Chokes- Standard.
Pistol Grip- easy to raise one handed into firing position, good feel.
Picatinny rail system- ability to quick change from Iron sights to scope or other aids.
Really don’t see the draw backs, but with any weapon you must be able to shoot it and fell compatible with it.

Hope that answers your question

I shoot winged criters with my Remi wingmaster and I love it. So I must suggest the remi, but that beneli sure is a nice gun.

The Benelli is a nice gun, if your willing to mortgage the home, but i still rest my case that 870 is where its at between the two.

If i could id convert ya to a browning fan :thumb

Believe it or not but the Benelli was only $560. The Rem was $530 & the Moss was $580.
