I' ve had one in my Mossberg for three years. I' m very pleased with it! Tried three others and this one out performed them all. Can' t beat that especially for $19.99

I use one in my Mossberg 835 and like it.I think mine is a .675 constriction.

I also own a winchester 1300. Mine has the 22" barrel though. I just bought an Undertaker choke tube for it for $20 at dicks sporting goods. It shoots great 50+ pellets in the head and neck at 30yds and 30+ pellets in the head and neck at 40 yds. I was using Winchester supreme High Velocity 1 3/4oz #6 shot. But i have also heard of guys getting good results from the star dot, hey give it a try, I' m sure you could find a load to shoot good out of it.

I get a great pattern out of my 26" 870 SP Mag. and the StarDot tube.

I didn' t get very good results out of my Charles Daly 3.5" auto with the Rem. Choke Star Dot using 3.5" Win. HV #4s, 5s or 6s. I borrowed a Hastings .650 and found the magic with Win. HV #6s in 3.5" .
I believe the Start Dot Rem. is a .668 constriction so you might want to start with #4s or 5s.
