The 3 big chokes that are preferred in the Rem 870SM are IC, JH and PG.  I myself prefer the Pure Gold .670 as it did better in my gun than all of them.

I am 100% satisfied with my PG .670 choke, shooting Hevi 13, 3", #6.  That choke throws a GREAT hunting pattern with that load.

My best pattern
.665 Indian Creek
Hevi13 3.5" 2.25oz #7s (the best shells on the market)
324 in a 10" circle at 40 yards

A .660 jellyhead can also do this at half the price

Have the same gun and I use the jellyhead. Love the gun also I have a slug barrel and use it for deer hunting.

I got one with a PG 670 and shoot hevi 6's.  Give a nice even pattern.  Got some 7's to try when it warms up.

Bass Pro just sent me a flyer with that gun on sale for 479.00....Thas an awesome price for that gun........

nice guns!! I thought my red dot was jacked up, and called remington , they sent me a new truglo with the red/green rheostat dot and flip up caps, I put it on and like it , found out there is nothing wrong with the remington red dot that came with it, the lens inside in the front housing looked crooked . .well its supposed to be . .Im gonna pattern the gun this weekend, and have a kicks gobblin thunder , and a patternmaster to try out, I may try to find a jellyhead, also Ive had great luck out of Hevi shot magnum blends out of my mossbergs, and super x3, but this remington may not like em, I have nitros, feds, hornadys, winchesters to try in all diff shot and 3, and 3.5  . . Ill post the results . .thanks guys!
