Old school choke for Old school 11-87

[Borden811]

Hey guys, I found an 11-87 in the old bottomland pattern. It's in good used shape, and if I can get the price down on it a bit I'm going to buy it. That being said, I'd like to use a choke tube from that period in it as well. What would you guys look for? It currently has the remington factory superfull in it. I plan on leaving it just the beads, no sights. I have some old white hevi shot that I plan to shoot in it. I have some longbeards that I'm sure would shoot fine thru the factory choke, but I'd like to keep this setup a little more "retro" I guess. I know the hevi shot is even pushing that, but I'll never shoot it in anything else.

A great retro choke would be a Mark Banser, made by truglo. They were made in the mid to late 90's, I have one in my 870, and I love it. An old star dot would be another choice.

I would go Kick's Comp-N-Choke. It's one of those that scream vintage with lead loads to me and I have had good luck with them.

An old MAD .655 has been working for many many years in my early '90s vintage 11-87 21" Trebark...

I have recently stepped up to an Indian Creek .665 to open things up a little bit with TSS.

 Remington factory straight rifled super full.
It came on the NWTF 25th anniversary edition 11-87 as well as others.
Great choke.

Some Star Dot's on e-bay right now, very reasonable prices.
