The jh .660 is what I put on my 870 when I bought it. And it still hasn't been taken off! Choke shoots anything good. I will be shooting long beard #4's this year

Last year I shot the LB's #6's out of an 870 SM with the .660 JH and got around 180 hits - then from the advice on here I went to a .665 JH and got around 230.  Seems like the lead wanted to be opened up a bit... But I personally did not like the LB's in the field near as much as the Hevi-13, so I went back to old faithful Hevi-13 and haven't looked back!

I also use the Jellyhead .660 and get great results.  I've shot Win XR HD #6 for the last two years and still have a few left, but will eventually change to Hevi-13 #6 or 7 with expected good results.
