$395 is downright cheap, and that gun is a no-brainer even if you don't really need it. As long as the chokes are open enough and you use the right length shells, steel is OK in these. The Miroku (and Daly) 500 tends to be lighter than the somewhat comparable BSS, so you will feel the recoil with duck loads. Probably the best value going for utilitarian SxS's, and very reliable.
