My only shotgun is a Mossberg 500. I have three barrels for it (18" home defense, 24" rifled with sights, and a 28" barrel with screw chokes).
It's light, swings well with the 28" barrel,and I shoot it well. Every time I've shot a borrowed O/U or a semi-auto, I've either had trouble swinging it on targets, or found it to be heavier than it needed to be (11-87!) or oddly balanced for my taste. I use the Mossberg for everything: doves, geese and ducks, squirrels,grouse, deer,turkeys,etc. I occasionally shoot trap and SC with it. I even reload for it. I'll likely never own another shotgun,as this one does everything I need a shotgun to do.
