I would say buy the M2. It is a little more versatile.

The M2 is a nice gun-- great handling, easy to maintain and clean, and soft shooting, not that "soft" recoil matters all as much as some people make it out to be. Have fun hunting whatever you get!

I would opt for the M2. I much prefer the recoil operation of the M2. Especially for a hunting gun. I have had both recoil and gas and this is my pick.

What kind of grouse are you hunting? It's mostly ruffed grouse for us in MN but we hunt sharpies out west. I use a different gun for the two types- usually a 20 gauge Beretta for ruffs, but I can use the 20 gauge M2 for both, just different loads and choke.

For wingshooting, it's hard to beat the value of Benelli's shim system on the Ultra light, Legacy, and Montefeltro models, that allows you to adjust cast on or cast off and drop to fit your shotgun to you. You'll never know how good of a wingshooter you can be until you have a shotgun that 's fitted to you.
