Get an Uncle Mike's barrel band. Simple to install.
I went out in the garage and cut an 8" piece of strapping off one of my many tie downs. Sewed a loop in one end and ran the other between the rib and top barrel. Tag end back onto the sling, works great. Added the second Carlson tube also.

You should find some Winchester Super Pheasant 3" 6s for your upclose barrel to try. I shot some today out of a Franchi 720 with a Carlson's 575 tube. 20 and 30 yards were GREAT hunting patterns. Haven't sat down and counted numbers yet, but I really liked them for inside 30.

Rather amazing with both shells.  I'm still amazed that Federal Discontinued the Heavyweight shells.  They are the best 20 gauge load ever invented IMO in size 7.

This gun and load/choke combination proved that it would do the job. .565 top barrel with TSS #9's and .575 with HVWT #7's in bottom barrel. The 9's did the job on this guy at 31 paces. One feather at the kill sight.
