Does anyone have experience with this gun?
What ammo or choke worked the best?

I have one and love it.  These barrels on these guns are overbored, so more open chokes work well.  I use an IC .575, but hunt around 9000 ft in elevation.  At sea level I might try an IC .570.  I'm using TSS hand loads.

I have one. I'm using a .562 Sumtoy and shooting 1 5/8 oz hand rolled  tss shells.
I did shoot 1 hevi #7 through the factory choke and got 135 in the 10 inch.

I'd like to try one. I have the slug gun and it certainly doesn't point like a shotgun.
