Default H&R Slug guns...

Hello gents,

In my quest to get the most range i can from my shotgun slugs, im looking into H&R's line of slug guns. Right now i shoot a rifled bbl on my 870 20ga and it does will out to just over 100yds with the iron sights.

I was looking into the H&R because it comes with 4" of extra barrel over my 870, plus i can mount a scope directly to the bbl, whereas with the 870, the best option is a saddle mount, which i dont trust for consistancy.
Im probably going to be keeping with 20ga, just because i dont really think the 12 adds any range, as far as accuracy and bullet drop go, theyre pretty much even, all the 12 offers is more energy at the target which the 20ga has enough of in my mind.

Sorry for the longwinded post, all i really need is opinions on H&R's slug guns, or similar guns. For the price of the H&R, i just wanted to make sure the quality was not lacking.

Thanks guys.

Mat
