Just bought a rem 870 3" chambered gun and looking for some advise on a choke for it
It has a redhead blackout .660 in it now but thought I would see what you all are using

Try that choke with some 3" Hevi-Shot #6's and 3" Winchester Longbeards #5's. :OGturkeyhead:

I have some #5 longbeards that my brother shoots to try out of it today if it's not raining
All of my family shoots the longbeards and they do shoot well

Hard to beat a Jellyhead .665 with 3" #5 Longbeards.

I've shot both the long beard #6 and the magnum blends also and they both pattern about the same, around 200 in the 10 at 40 yrds.  This was using a truglo SSX choke and also and Indian Creek, both pattern both to the same, but POI was off so had to add some adjustable sights to the gun.

Hard to go wrong with a Jellyhead .660 or .665.

Gobble!

What you have should work. I'm a Indian Creek and TSS fan.

665 jelly head has thrown good patterns with any hevi shells I've tried

Ohiostrutter, where you find s 665" for a Rem. 870....I only see a 660" available and am wondering if this was once made for the 870, because only 660" is listed on all sites as available.

If you can find a Remington Ventilator choke that one worked best in mine.

Buddy of mine did very well with, of all things, a Tightwad .660...They're cheap and apparently effective. He shoots 3" #6 Longbeards out of it...166 in the ten at 40 yds.
