Default mossberg 20 youth

I'm buying my son a mossberg 20 gage youth model. What chokes, and loads have worked for you that have this model?

You'll have to shoot it yourself to figure that out. Other than that all you are getting is opinions, not answers.

A good aftermarket choke for an economic price is the HS Undertaker. With a 20 gauge, I'd shoot plated #5 shot. Winchester.. black box... 3" #5.... = dead turkeys!

My girlfriend's 20 gauge Beretta works best with an Improved Modified choke and 3" #6 Hevi-13. It will do the job at 35 yards, but not much more.

I recently purchased a Mossberg youth gun, because it fits me as a woman better,lol. It's the super bantam turkey. I was working on patterning it yesterday and I'd say between the H.S. Undertaker choke I used and the x-full factory tube, they were about the same but I'd go with the undertaker. I was getting nice tight patterns but they were hitting high. I'll tell you know, if it has the fiber optic sights on it from Mossberg, I'd upgrade. I can't get the rear sight any lower and that is probably why I'm hitting a little high. Overall though this gun has some knock down power!
