I patterned a Remington 870 HD 12 guage w/18 1/2 inch barrel using 00 buck.
Here were the results. 5.5 inches at 15 feet. 6.5 inches at 30 feet. 7.25 inches at 45 feet. 8.25 inches at 60 feet. 9.25 inches at 75 feet.
I'm contemplating buying a new barrel. A 20 inch barrel w/screw in chokes and rifle sights.
Can anybody give me some idea as to what kind of patterns I could expect with a 20 inch barrel with a modified choke? 20 inch barrel with full choke?
I'm trying to make my 870 suitable for boar.
Plus, what kind of choke is recommended for a slug? What kind of accuracy is expected w/a slug? To 50 yards? 100 yards? thanx
