I found a good deal on a H&R 20ga at a pawn shop yesterday. It has a fixed full barrel. I will probably go get it this week. What can I expect to see for the pattern out of the full barrel with the Fed HW 7's? I will probably get the barrel threaded next year so i can possibly hunt a few times with it or let some kids use it.
Any insight would be appreciated even if you shoot a NEF.
My wife uses a 20Ga NEF® Ladies/Youth gun with a 22" MOD fixed choke. The ammunition is Remington® HEVI•SHOT® 20ga 3" Mag 1300fps 1 1/8oz #6 (12g/cc); target was shot at 30yds off hand..........

Get it threaded for chokes.
Thats what I'm shooting now but I sent the barrell to Colonial Arms in Alabama,they threaded it in remchoke.I shoot a PG .570 with #7 Federals.Love it!
I haven't gotten the gun yet but my plan right now is shoot the full barrel and Fed HW 7 this year. Next year have SumToy tread the barrel and shoot one of his chokes and eventually have a FFII installed. Should be a dream to carry. I can see myself checking to make sure it's still over myshoulder it's so light. Thanks for all the responses.
looking for one myself,going to set it up for the grandson
but I might have to "borrow it" sometimes
I have my eye on one also. I may have to pick it up come Mon. morning now that I know I can get the barrel threaded.
