Would you recommend one for a hunting shotgun or is there some better options in the similar price range

I’ve read really good things about them. I believe they are built on the Benelli inertia action.

The Stoeger M3000 is a very good value that performs well above its price point. I know of many in use both as waterfowl guns (tough conditions and heavy recoiling ammo) and in 3 Gun competition (high volume shooting)

I've had mine for 5 years. I bought it for geese and ducks and it's great for those.
I have also used it for trap and sporting clays, I'm really happy with it for those. It feeds all the ammo I have tried, plus it's easy to disassemble and clean. I recommend it to anyone who asks. A few of the guys I hunt geese with have Benellis and Berettas. Those are very nice, but they don't seem to have any advantage killing geese. Full disclosure - I'm firing a few hundred rounds a year. Guys who are shooting 2000 rounds a month may need a better gun. |

I have one for 3 gun, very reliable and easy to use. I also had a 20 ga for a while, also good.

Good and reliable, but with heavier loads it kicks pretty good since it's inertia driven.
I own both the M3000 and the Beretta A300, and for not much more money I'd recommend getting the A300, much smoother shooting being gas piston. |

I bought my grandson a 3020, the 20ga version. He has been a bird and clay killing machine with it. At the price point its a fantastic gun. Really there are no bad shotguns made by the Beretta companies.

Really there are no bad shotguns made by the Beretta companies. I was looking really hard at those from all the positive reviews on the 3000. But PSA had a deal on the Beretta A300 Ultima and that's the direction I went. I actually talked my buddy into the 3gun version of the 3000 and he's been happy with it. |

Great as long as you don’t shoot it too fast or else the hammer rides the bolt and won’t fire.
