What choke does best with this load in #7 shot?

I'd get a .555 or .550 constriction in the choke of your choice.  TruGlo SSX in .550 is proven in the Remingtons, and the Pure Gold .555 as well.

Before you go buy a choke. Try the factory full. We shot my buddies with that set up, and it is DEADLY. It will give you a solid 40 plus some fudge built in.

Thanks guys for the info.  I'm using a Carlson tube now and it's not bad but not super tight and a little patchy.  However hevi13s #6 shoot very tight but if I could get the federals as tight I would be happy.  I will try the regular full this week.

Here's my 870 20ga with an SSX and Fed 7's. At a lasered 40 yards to where I was sitting so the actual distance from the end of barrel is just under 40.

Thats impressive.  Who makes the SSX choke tube?

sawtooth

SumToy 565-2 Fed Heavy #7 180 in a 10in cirle at 40yds. Call William at SumToy chokes. That out of a M2.

A number of my readers are seeing excellent results with that shell with the Hevi-13 Turkey Choke.

I'd also take a hard look at the Pure Gold "Tempest" in .555. I've had a hard time keeping those in stock. It's been the best seller from word of mouth for the Benelli M2 shooters.

Thanks,
