In a modern shotgun, you should be just fine with any of the factory flush mounted chokes. A full choke in most guns is only .690 and that would be a very open turkey choke.

If your going to spend the money on hevi shot do yourself a favor and buy a good aftermarket choke. kinda like having a sportscar with a speed governor to hold you at 55.

Sumtoy makes a good choke for the 20s. Send him a PM or sumtoycustoms.com. He's a good guy to deal with and will get you what you want.

I'd recommend the Hevi-13 Turkey Choke or the Pure Gold .555 for that gun. Both do a very good job in those guns.

Thanks,
