    Default what does your 870 like?

    I know each gun is different, but I am trying to decide on a choke and shell combo for my 870 to try out. I will end up trying a couple, but figured getting an idea of what some of the prefer might shorten the shoulder thumping. Thanks for any help, and have a good one.
