Title: Need help!! Rem. 870 20 ga. + Hevi 13 #6's/MagBlends + WHAT CHOKE = Success??
Post by: aaronward9 on April 01, 2011, 04:34:46 PM
Hey guys.. I'm picking up a Rem. 870 20 ga. soon and I already have some 20 ga. Hevi 13 6's and MagBlends, so what would be a good choke to throw in it that will perform well with these loads?  Haven't been a 20 ga. turkey hunter before, but wanting to try it out for the wife!

Thanks in advance!!

Pure Gold .570 and Truglo SSX .550.

Between these two chokes, you will have a shooter.

Sort of new kid on the block but only to turkey chokes , I would check with Sum Toy chokes , a non-ported choke that is designed for hunting and durability . See their site oe give him a call. Great patterns for hunters.

I'd say Rem SF .570.  I do think you will be more pleased shooting a #7 load though.
