RE: 870 rifled barrel or not...?
I have plenty of guns (cabinet is full). I have rifles, but do not wish to carry them as they are not permitted for deer/bear where I usually hunt. I use my bows for deer hunting. But, if it is gun season for deer and I want to go blast a few 'yotes, I want to remain legal. Therefore, I am considering a rifled barrel. I have buckshot, but doubt it's effectiveness. I can't get any consistent pattern past 30-35 yards. I am sure that my 30-06 or 303 would do quite a number of 'yotes, but are a little overpowered and illegal to carry during deer season (when one possesses a tag)....
Thanks for your suggestions and help. Perhaps I will go out with some rifled slugs and try em out....at least scare a few 'yotes or blast a few stumps.
What choke (if any) should I have screwed in?
