jimkozler Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 I have a Remington 11-87, 3 inch w/ a 21 inch barrell. Any suggestions on Choke & Shot Size to obtain good pattern at 40 yards? Thanks for any suggestions. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleA Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 Welcome to the forums Jim. You might want to include the intended purpose....ie duck, geese, turkey ? Are you using lead, bismuth, steel, the various high density loads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crappiepro Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 If its for turkey I would say Kicks Gobblin Thunder in .665 shootin #5s in 3in. I bought the choke to get a better pattern at 40 to 50 yrds and this is agood one.I dont normally take 50yrd shots but last year I had one hang-up out of range. Ill get him now!!

colorado bob Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 I would try using the standard factory full choke. My buddy uses the factory full & has good results for turkey. I would use 3" turkey loads with #6 shot-----you're good to go at 40yards. For ducks i would use a modified choke & # 3 steel for ducks. Down to #2 steel for geese over decoys. Hope this helps.
