Clays Shotgun
I agree that fit is one of the most important aspects of shooting a shotgun. I'm more of a skeet shooter but occasional trap shooter and I pretty much exclusively shoot a Browning 425. I use my skeet loads of 1oz and a light mod choke and pretty consistently shoot 22s to straights on trap. I like to get on them quick.
Beretta's don't fit me well at all, my Browning is great for me.
For me, my O/U is so much quicker in any follow up shot than an auto, when I do shoot an auto, the gun ejecting the shell and loading a new one is almost a distraction. It seems like it's almost in slow motion.
I think once you get used to shooting your 525, you'll enjoy it. Have someone experienced check out the fit for you and if worse comes to worse, I'll trade you my 870 for it.
