Update

I've carried and spring gobbler hunted with only a NWTF laminated Rob Keck Win 1300 my whole life. I have faith in it and I just don't feel right carrying any other shotgun. Its like a extension of my own body to put it into words I guess. I've bought a couple different brand 12 ga's and sold them after carrying in the woods a couple times. But I've always wanted one of the old green lead 870's. I got lucky and found one in out of the box condition.

I heard so much good feedback on 870's and jellyhead .660's going together like PB&J I went with the JellyHead. I'm simply not a fan of scope turkey guns. Always used a single bead until last year. I wanted to fine tune my POI with POA but still have no fail, open sight, swing fast and pull trigger at same time capabilities so the next best thing for me was Tru Glo pro series mag gobble dot rifle sights. Now I have them on all my shotguns. (1300, 870 12, 870 20) So I installed those.

My next day off I'm going to center up the sights at close range with dove shot then pattern test with Long beard 6's and Mag Blends. I'll have pics up soon.

My other two shotguns 1300 and 870 20. The Wichester has covered many miles with me.

Awsome gun! I have been toting a Green Leaf 11-87 for years that I bought brand new back in my college days.

Let us know how she patterns!
