I can shoot 2 inch groups at 50 yds with my remington 1100 20 gauge and remington sluggers through a skeet choke. It is not my dedicated deer gun, but if all you have available to you is a bird barrel, it can certainly be used. The IC choke is usually rcommended and should do just fine. I installed screw on adjustable rifle sights (Williams) on my vent rib. It certainly outperforms a standard bead sight.
