if you're talking about the 870wingmaster & not the ranegmaster i would go with the wingmaster hands down over the winchester and this from a guy who has a 1300. nice gun but the wingmaster is a better gun I.M.O.
also if you do have the money i would def. go with a two barrel set up you'll be much happier that you did however if you can't swing it now you can always add the other barrel later. one thing about the 870, there are more aftermarket barrels and such than you can shake a stick at so you can find something affordable. when you do get a slug barrel, get a fully rifled barrel with a cantilever scopemount. you say you will only be shooting 40-50 yds but one day you may be hunting another piece of property and wish you had 100 yd capabilities. with the cantilevered scopemount the scope stays with the barrel so when you swap barrels for deer hunting you should still be pretty much zero'd.
