Favorite 20 gauge set up

[Gooserbat]

Remington 870 youth.  Choke selection is endless, assesories are plentiful, and with fed HW 7 it's likely out shooting lead 3" 12ga. 

And then there is tss...

Well I'm just getting in the 20ga ballgame so I'll post up my fav setup after season

I am all in on 20 ga. After picking up this weatherby that weighs in at just under 6 lbs ,its shoots lights out with Fed #7 and either a Trulock or Sumtoy. I probably wont ever shoot my 12 ga again.Lee

This will probably be the next rig I get when I retire the 500, but she has to get at least 20 birds under her first.

Love this set and agree, got the weatherby for my wife but i use it all the time when she's not with and all my nephews will be using it on their early outings in the turkey woods.

I'm pretty sure mine is a BLACKHAWK KNOXX RECOIL REDUCING STOCK for the REMINGTON 870 20 GA

Thanks. Now I just need to find one. Apparentely they don't make them anymore.

H&R single pardner full choked barrel
Light thing you can find and is dead nuts out to 30

Another vote for the 870 youth. Have a sureshot at the moment but may swap to an adjustable recoil reducing stock.

I think the setup depends on the age of the kid who plans using it.  I love the 870's but ended up going with the Mossberg 500 Super Bantam. By adding the stock it dropped the length of pull to 11&1/4 inches.  I to had to work years to get over my flinching from my old man putting to big of a gun in my hands to early which I am careful from doing.  My son just turned 7 so I'm going with the Federal Heavyweight #7's in 2 3/4 right now. With the 575 blackout choke I'm really happy with the numbers and confident out to 35yrds. Still got to add a camoclad kit to this gun. IMO if your kid is over 11-12 I would go with the 870 Youth.

The Mossberg SA 20 turkey is my favorite. The gun is light as a feather but being a semi automatic the kick is nothing. I use a Carlson's.575 and federal HW # 7 with great results. It comes with beard buster sights and a rail if you want a scope. My 8 year old loves it but it is also the gun I use!

All of the other post have great advice I have a weatherby sa08 with an Indian Creek .555 and shoot hevi 13 #7 and have patterned it from 20yards to 50 yards with good patterns. Now before anyone starts bashing me the 50 yard was just for curosity. It is a nice Gun for the money but unless something has changed since I got the gun there's not many after market ad ons for it if any for the gun. So do your research on all the Guns you maybe interested so your sons can grow into the gun and use for years to come. Get the best you can afford.
