New Semi-Auto Shotgun
It is time to buy a new shotgun. I am looking for a semi auto 12 ga. What is the best one to buy? I have been looking at a Winchester, Beretta, and Benalli. Are there any others that you would recommend? What is your experience with these?

I have a beretta AL391 Urika Trap, and I love it. It's never done me wrong.
I want to buy a Winchester Super X3, because it now holds the record for the fastest cycling action.
Benelli is an excellent brand, but is pricey.
My recommendation, Winchester SX3.
I also have a Remington 1100 Sporting 12. It has functioned flawlessly since 2002 when it was purchased.

I bought a Beretta AL390 12ga shotgun last year.
It is a lower end model, only paid $510 for it.
I've been very happy with it.
I bird hunt with it, dove, quail, and turkey.
I sold a Browning BPS that I used for 8 years and bought the Beretta.
Would love to get a Beretta A391 Xtrema2 someday.

I have three Remington 1100 12ga shotguns ranging in age from 64-years-old to brand new. They all work perfectly and, as you can probably tell, I'm a big fan of the 1100. 
But it all depends on what you plan to use the gun for.

If your looking for a high quality shotgun that isnt gonna kill your wallet I would go with the Winchester SX3 which is an extremly impressive shotgun that will shoot 12 shells in 1.442 seconds and now holds the new record.... not to mention that it has a duracoat finish that will never give you that cold steel feeling anytime you pick it up.... Just my two cents... I work at an outdoor store and seeing them everyday and playing with them... thats the next one I will be buying without a doubt

I'll +1 this... My family has a 46 year old 1100 that was given to my dad when he was 17. Its a hell of a shotgun and has never failed in any way in the couple thousand rounds I've put through it.

It all depends on the application that you will use it for.
