Need Help Decideing Choke, Brand, Size
Although i'm totaly deaf in one ear, i'm going to try turkey hunting this year. My problem is not knowing what choke to buy for my .12ga. Rem. 870. There are so many on the market as well as shot size and brands. Whats the difference between Tky. Ex. Full, and Tky.Sup. Full ? I see Cabela's has their own Hevi-Shot choke tube for $29.99. Would this be a good choice ??? Will appriciate any help you guys can give me... Thanks.

I also shoot a 870. I have patterened many different loads and tubes. For my gun I shoot the remington nitro 3 inch number 5s. It patterns well out around 50 or 55 yards. The choke I bought was the the factory super full turkey choke. .665

Well from my experience is that every gun is unique in its pattern, but I know that it is also pricey to test several choke tubes. Hopefully you will get some good advice from other .870 shooters here to tell you what choke tubes work well in their guns.
