I was worried about getting "scope-eye",from my 1187 using mag loads,after putting on a simmons 4x32 pro diamond & first shooting from 10yds. with inexpenive 2-3/4 in. dove loads to get the scope zeroed, then I moved the target back to 35 yds. And using the 3" mag that I would be hunting with-I had to lower the elevation about 2".I did'nt get hit in the the eye as I'd feared & I saved myself some soreness/$$ too. Putting a scope on the shotgun-GO FOR IT !!!
