I figured there would be different answers than a choke, since most dedicated turkey guns come with an xfull choke of somesort.  But that is also what i would do too.

Well I will be contrary.  With my eyes I would put a reflex sight on it and live with the factory tube.  Since I have had cataract surgery and my eyes no longer focus, shooting barrel sights is out.

Aftermarket tube.  A bead will do just fine if the choke can get the pattern there.

I would put one of those 400 dollar Leopold Delta sights on it.
But if given 400 bucks ...burris fastfire, 336  marlin base, sling and a choke.

I'd be looking for a adjustable site for it.

A good tight pattern aint worth a sh@t if your POI & POA dont add up....

YES.  Or 6's if I couldn't find 7's.  Almost any Full Choke, Extra Full Choke, or Turkey Choke will kill well at 40+ with Hevi13.  Go for the H13 shells.
