 Around .562 was just what I was thinking too. A friend of my brother hunts with a 20 and uses .562 and .575 chokes.

Sumtoy or Trulock.   Sumtoy is on here and will know exactly what is best for what ever you are running.  They know their stuff.

Honest answer?  Primos Tightwad.   For the money, I haven't found a better choke for the federal heavyweight loads.  My Remmy shoots insanely good patterns with the 7s and will put up 110+ with the 6s.  Paid a whopping 11 bucks for it at Walmart and it performs as well for better than chokes 3-4 times the cost.

I have an Indian Creek and it is awesome. My wife's gun has one of the tight wads and I will agree for the price, hard to beat. She has been shooting hevi shot through it and it performs very well. Either one would be a good choice.

I tried them all through my youth 870 , the Indian creek 555 put up the best pattern for me ..

Well, I'll tell you what not to try.  I have a Sumtoy 567 and its awful with the Heavyweight 6's (honestly 42 in the 10" circle at 40 yards), but not bad with the Heavyweight 7's (122 in the 10" circle at same distance).  I have a .562 inbound now and will also try the Remington SuperFull 20 gauge as well.  I'm going to get a box of Winchester LBs in size 6 and give those a go just to see what happens with all the chokes.   This is my backup gun.  I shoot a Sumtoy 562 out of my Nova and average 155 at 40 yards with the Heavyweight 7's.
