870 SM - #4 Hevi Choke Recommendations

[Extremesolo]

I have a 28" 870 SM and I have a .665 JH in it right now.  It shoots great patterns with hevi #6 and #7 but I have 6 new boxes of the old remington hevi shot in 3.5" 1 7/8 oz #4.  I have shot them through the same .665 JH and I get 120 in a 10" circle.  I know that anything over 100 is plenty but I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with different chokes and hevi #4 in their 870.  I was thinking about trying a slightly more open choke like the factory super full or even a ventilator just to see if I can get any better numbers.  Any other recommendations or experiences would be welcomed.  Thanks.

I'd say those numbers are really good for #4s.

Holding 120 Hevi 4's in the 10" is a really great pattern! Especially for only 1 7/8 ounces of those #4's!

that smoking good for #4

That sounds good to me.

I would normally think 675 for #4s ; if you are getting 120 with anything I would be set. Those are unbelievable numbers for #4s and plenty lethal .

120 #4's  you don't need to change a thing

[pdaugherty]

That's really good for the HEVI #4s and with the energy they have you won't have any problem killing a bird!

Hevi 4s would drop and ostrich DRT I'd think!
