Most of the hunting I do is in a rifle zone, so I use my 30-06. But if I don't get anything and decide to do a little hunting around home, I use my Benelli Nova. I just use a smoothbore barrel with rifled slugs.

I use a Remington 1100 in 12 gauge. I originally purchased a synthethic stock, matte finished one with a 28" vent-rib barrel with RemChoke... I purchased a second barrel...Remington 20" fully rifled with rifle sights from Cabelas. I then had the receiver drilled and tapped for a Weaver full length mount and put a 3-9x40 scope in quick-release Quad-lok rings (for deer hunting)...sighted in at 100 yards with Hornady 300 grain SST slugs.

Also have a 1-4x32 circle plex scope in quick release rings for use with the original barrel for turkey hunting...

Remington 870 is what I use to hunt with.
Now I use muzzle loaders

I have two:
Benelli Nova combo 12ga, with cantilever barrel and Bushnell Holosight
870 12ga cantilever, Bushnell Red Dot, Boyd's thumbhole stock. This has become my 'go-to' slug gun as it is much lighter than the Benelli, easier to carry.

Mossberg UltiMag 870 with rifled barrel topped with a Pine Ridge 2.5-7x32 scope. I shoot Hornady SST 300 grain slugs through it zeroed at 150 yds.
