Picked up a Mossberg 500 bottomland with a factory turkey choke. 24"bbl. Looking forward to playing around with this little fella.

I like that gun. I've got the plain jane 500E. I wish it was threaded for chokes.

Probably going to order a SumToy to test against the factory choke. Got a few boxes of 9.5 apex ninjas and some of the Winchester 7.5 lead turkey loads to try out.

FYI for anyone wondering, the factory choke is a .385.

Also be warned...non-chlorinated brake cleaner will pull the dipped finish off. Never had that problem before, but maybe this finish is a little different?

Oh no, hopefully it didn't take too much off.
Congrats on the gun!

Wasn't too bad, just pissed me off.

Got the Fastfire mounted last night.

The older version was 26" barrel.  Mine is a 2018 model.  It is Mossy Oak Obsession camo, has a 26" fixed full choke barrel and is not drilled and tapped.  The most recent version is 24" Mossy Oak Bottomland with drilled and tapped receiver and threaded for choke tubes.

My fixed full measures .389 which is leaning extra full.  Just recently found some Federal TSS to try which I will when the weather here permits.  Good luck on your new .410's.  I just joined this game too.
