870 Super Mag choke tube suggestion

[renegade19]

Getting ready to replace my old 870 which was stolen.  I've decided on an 870 Super Mag.  Any choke tube suggestions?  I had great luck with a Truglo STX in the .662 in my old gun.

Jellyhead .660 or Indian Creek Black Diamond

Well, as always, guns pattern differently, so suggestions are just a starting point.
I shoot an 870 Super Mag through a Remington Ventilator extended and ported choke, I believe its in .655. I shoot Winchester Hi-Velocity 3-1/2" #4's. While most of my shots are at 20 yards or less, I've taken a few birds at 48-54 yards with this set up.

I am shooting a hevi-13 in my sm, .662 constriction. Over 300 in a 10" circle at 40 with Hevi-13, 3-1/2" #7's.

.660 jelly head here with 3.5" mag blends.

Another vote for the Jellyhead .660.

Don't overlook the Kick's Gobblin Thunder, .665. I have that in my super mag and I'm getting apprx 80% pattern at 30yds with Win HV's 3 & 3.5.

A couple years ago I was looking for a choke for my 870. I tried 4 chokes; IC, Comp-n-choke, PG and a Jellyhead. The jellyhead was the cheapest choke I tried and it out shot the others by a long ways.

I have used the Remington Model 870™ SPS™ Super Mag with the traditional stock. If I am hunting in Florida and my shots are going to be relatively close I use the factory choke that came with the gun. I have killed many Osceola's with the factory choke. You cannot use Hevi-Shot with the factory choke. If I go out of state and if I feel that my shots are going to be a little further out I use the Primos Jelly-Head choke.

Depends on what you want in a pattern.  If you want a hot center with the most pellets in the middle then an Indian creek is a good place to start.  if you want a tight pattern with a more even coverage, which is incidentally what I look for, then I would recommend Ballistic Specialties, Sumtoy, or maybe a Pure Gold.

My gun likes the regular Remington super full the best. Of the others jelly head threw the second best patterns.

If you get a new supermag and it comes with the HD turkey/predator choke give er a try. Mine averages 175 with 3in hevi 2 oz #6. Nice even pattern too. It pounds em at 40yds with that set up.

I started with a Primos Tight Wad in my 870.  It was OK at 40 Yds.  Moved up to a Kicks Gobblin Thunder and am very happy - I shoot Win. 3 1/2" #5s.  I can't shoot hevi-shot through the kicks.  I have also shot a Primos Jelly Head, which is better than the Tight Wad but not as good as the Kicks in my gun.  If you are shooting lead, I'd try a Kicks, if you want to shoot Hevi-Shot - I'd go with a Jelly Head (based on price and how they have patterned in my gun).  Any of the above will kill a tom at 40 yds (I have seen it with my own eyes) - just depends on how much you want to spend, and how many holes you want in their head - but dead is dead.

A .670 PG provides me with an excellent hunting pattern for shots as close as 20 yards out to 50 plus if I misjudge distance.The .670 constriction seems like a great compromise.This is after shooting RSF for 5-6 years then falling victum to the "how many in a 10" circle at 40yards"club.
