Realistically, one isn't "better" than the other, they both have great track records and both will do what the other can do.
What it's going to boil down to is which do you think "Fits You" best.
I have the Rem. 870 not because it's better but because that's the one that felt most fitting to me at the time of purchase.
Good Luck to you on whichever one you decide on.
