Oh Yeah...

26" Barrel

Plan on shooting the Hevi-13 3-2-7.

Going to polish the barrel.

I know that this horse has been beaten but any replies would be appreciated!

I voted .665 cause it's what I have and throws a great pattern. I would get whichever one is easiest for you to come by. You can't go wrong with either one in my opinion.

I can get around 300 shot in a 10" circle at 40yds with a MAD Super Max .675 choke and the 3" 2oz #7 Hevi-13 loads out of my 870 28" polished barrel I did myself.  And that is tape measured from tip of choke to taget.   :z-guntootsmiley:

Well I guess I should prove it.   :lol:

But that Super Max is a hard choke to beat.  It's the best choke I have found period.

I voted 665 cause I havent shot the 660. 

I bought a whole lot of Mag Blends last year and when I got a new toy (remington 870 SPS) for christmas, I decided to give the more open choke a try and went with the 665. 

I shot it against a PG and IC and they were all very comparable but I was very pleased with the JH 665 with the Mag Blends.
