Hopefully I can put this to good use Saturday morning! Opening morning is this Saturday for us in Georgia and I know where some have been gobbling! Can't wait!!

Very nice!  I'd highly recommend patterning your gun before you go hunting.  I had a buddy a few years back get a new SBE II right before opening day and he missed two long beards on the opener.  He finally killed a nice tom a couple days later and the bird didn't even look like it had been shot.  A single pellet or two must've hit a vital spot.

Thanks I got to shoot it a couple times the other day. I hope this will do the trick. 30yards factory choke

Swing by Barnes and see if they have any chokes that would work for your gun.
