I have one on an H&R 12 Ultr Slug and it works great. It's a great combo and I havent missed a deer with it yet.

I have one on my 870 Slug gun and love it also. Plus you can get the Prohunter series on sale now at most retailers.

I have one on my 870 also. I absolutely love it. I used to have to sight in high at 50 and a little high at 100 to be dead on at 150, not anymore! dead on all the way out. Unreal confidence knowing that!!!!!!!!!

I have that scope on my SuperNova slug gun, 2 deer down with that combo.
Very clear optics and love the BDC reticle.

I have one on a NEF Ultra Slug 20 Gauge and it is dead on. Good in low light conditions. Excellent for the price.

thanks guys, anyone use it at closer ranges...say 25 yds or so? Where I hunt the deer could come from anywhere near or far.

And using the Nikon scope changed the tragectory of your slug that significantly, huh?

Very impressive!!!!

Maybe your old scope was bent......

It's a BDC Reticle Uncle Matt. That is what he was referring to. Perhaps you should consider changing the trajectory of your arrows? Or maybe your limbs are just bent....

I have Nikon Monarch Trueky Pro and this shotgun also doubles for use on deer.

I have taken 25 yard shots - and is on at 100 if needed.

I do nothing to the scope when I take the rifled choke tube out and go back to just a turkey gun.
