So jcchartboy, you seem pretty up-to-speed on the slug gun info. I just went out and purchased a Remington 11-87 SportsmanDeerDedicated Slug gun in black synthetic, fully rifled barrel, topped it with a nice set of Weaver rings, and put a Bushnell elite 3200 3-9 x 40 scope combo on it. I am a descent shot, and have yet to shoot this gun, but with my old cheap riffled Mosberg, I held 3 - 5 inch patterns at about 110 yards. What do you think of the combo that I just purchased...what would you have done differantly in that price range for semi-auto/rings/scope combo? Just curious as to your opinion. THANKS!

Sean

PS, I got the gun for $498 (Sells for $629 at Gander Mountain) Weaver Grand Slam rings for $25, and scope for $162.50 (Sells for $239.00 at Cabellas), for a total of $685.50 plus tax.
