Description

Key Features
- Two-Barrel Combo — Why it matters: You get a dedicated turkey barrel with a fiber-optic sight and Ulti-Full choke for tight patterns, plus a fully rifled barrel with a cantilever scope base for slug accuracy, so you’re ready for spring turkey and deer season with one gun.
- 3.5-Inch Chamber — Why it matters: The Ulti-Mag action handles 3.5-inch magnum shells, giving you extra reach and energy for big game, while still cycling 2.75-inch and 3-inch loads for practice or small game.
- Dual Comb Stock — Why it matters: The synthetic Mossy Oak stock has two comb heights—one for use with iron sights and one for optics—so you can get a consistent cheek weld whether you’re using the fiber-optic front sight or a scope on the rifled barrel.
- Vent-Rib, Ported Turkey Barrel — Why it matters: The vent-rib reduces heat mirage, and barrel ports help control muzzle rise, keeping you on target for quick follow-up shots during turkey season.
- Ambidextrous Safety — Why it matters: The tang-mounted safety is easy for right-handed shooters to reach, and you can switch it to left-hand use if needed, making the gun more versatile for family members.
Who It’s For
This combo is for the hunter who wants one shotgun that can do it all—turkey hunting with a tight pattern and deer hunting with slug accuracy. It’s ideal for a dad teaching his kids to hunt, because you can start with light loads in the turkey barrel and move up to magnum slugs later. The Mossy Oak camo blends into fields and woods, and the synthetic stock resists weather, so it’s great for beginners who might leave gear in the truck overnight.
Pros and Cons
- Pros: Two barrels for the price of one gun; handles 3.5-inch shells for maximum power; dual comb stock improves sighting with optics; Mossy Oak camo is a top hunting pattern.
- Cons: The gun is heavier than some single-purpose shotguns (around 7.5 lbs), which can be tiring for a young shooter on a long hunt. Also, switching barrels requires a tool (a wrench is included), so it’s not a quick field swap.

FAQ
Is this shotgun suitable for a left-handed shooter?
The Mossberg 835 Ulti-Mag Combo is supplied for right-hand shooters, meaning the safety is on the tang and can be switched to left-hand use, but the stock is not cast for lefties. A left-handed shooter can still use it, but the cheek weld may not be as comfortable. For a dedicated left-hand gun, look at the left-hand version of the 835.
What chokes are included with the turkey barrel?
The turkey barrel comes with an Ulti-Full choke installed. This is a tight pattern choke designed for turkey loads. The rifled barrel does not use chokes—it’s designed for smoothbore slugs or sabot slugs with the cantilever scope base.
Can I shoot 2.75-inch shells in this 3.5-inch chamber?
Yes, the Mossberg 835 Ulti-Mag cycles 2.75-inch, 3-inch, and 3.5-inch shells reliably. For practice or small game, use 2.75-inch loads; for turkey or deer, step up to 3-inch or 3.5-inch magnums.
Does the rifled barrel come with a scope?
No, the rifled barrel includes a cantilever scope base, but you need to buy a scope separately. The cantilever mount holds zero better than a receiver-mounted scope because it attaches directly to the barrel.
