a great gun fo the money look around and see if you can find one to shoot first. here is that gun on buds gunshop https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/...ducts_id/51952. You can't go wrong with an 870.

I just picked one up as well, can't wait to get it patterned. What choke and shell combos are you guys using with this gun?

I'm using a jelly head choke with 3 1/2" Hevi13 #4's. I tried several 5 shot loads and this one pattered the best. Again, I can't argue with the results - I shot my bird at 36 paces. Although I will be trying the Hevi Shot Magnum Blend and/or #7's next trip to the range.

I just have a Remington Super full turkey choke in mine...
This year I shot Winchester Supreme 3.5" #4s & 5s.
Last few years prior Remington Nitro 3.5" #4s & 5s.

You can kindof see it agains the stone wall in this pic... first bird w/ ShurShot buttstock and forend...
