The Rugers are fine shotguns and will give years of good service. Bill Ruger has continually refined and improved his O/U's. If you are buying new you should have few problems. I have heard that the 12 ga has more recoil than a comparable Browning or Beretta.

The Berettas are great guns, and probably are better in quality over the Ruger. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

I owned one of each and was satisfied with both guns. (Ruger 20 and Beretta 28). I sold them to help finance my K80.

I suggest shooting a Beretta before you decide. Personally if I were in your situation I would probably buy Beretta.

I have noticed that ruger shooters tend to move on to another brand after shooting awhile, but Beretta owners seem to stay loyal to Beretta. (This is among sporting clays shooters).
