Title: Which Choke for my 870 SM?
Post by: bluerivertrapper on February 06, 2015, 03:45:43 PM
I'm trying to decide between a Jellyhead or a Indian Creek Choke for my Remington 870 SM. I'll most likely be shooting LB #5. Thanks

I have nothing but good things to say about Indian Creek. Great company, great customer service, great product.

Used a IC .665 initially with hevi-13 #6 3.5" 2.25oz loads. Great pattern, tight but some smaller holes.

Now use a Rob Roberts .670 which is a little more open and an even pattern without the holes.

Buddy has used the jellyhead in his as well with good success.

I shoot a 870 SM with a jellyhead .665 and shoot LB #5 shot. I got 168 bb's in a 10" circle at 40 yards. I am satisfied.

Jellyhead.  Use the money you'll save to buy shells.

My buddy got 142 Longbeard 4's with his 870 sm and a jellyhead 665. I was impressed
