Title: Remington 870 choke question??
Post by: mozer67 on March 08, 2013, 08:01:20 PM

I have a remington 870 SP turkey gun w/23" barrel. Im going to be shooting winchester supreme #6 3" 2oz turkey loads.
I would like a choke that has a good balance for close 20 yrds and under out to about 45 yrds. What choke would be a good choice for this set up? Thanks!!

IC .665 does well in my 1187, better than a JH .660, a Ventilator .655, or an SSX .643. But all of those are good with lead. My gun patterns the cheap grey box Winch 3-1&7/8-6s better than the 3-1.75-6 or the 3-2-6s.

My gun shot the jellyhead .660 and kicks .655 with lead 3-2-6's very well

If it came with one, the remington HD choke.

The SSX works well.
