Default New Gun

I am so excited. I just got a new gun. It is a 3.5" Remington 11-87!!!! I cant wait to see how it patterns. Hopefully I will be taking a Tom or two with it this spring!! Just thought I'd let everyone know.

Please let me know the exacts on how it patterns, I may be looking into getting one myself. If you don't mind me asking, how much did it set you back? I need to start saving. Thanks taw.

Well I think they cost about $900 new but I got mine from someone who had only hunted with it once. It is like brand new!!! He sold it to me for $585. I think I got a pretty good deal. I'll let everyone know how it patterns when my choke that I ordered comes in.

I'm putting in TruGlo's Strut Stopper. I figure I'll give that a try and if I dont like it I'll get a Comp-N-Choke.

You might just like the choke tube that comes with it. I would try the factory choke before you spend the extra money.
