Home Defense - inside of 20 yards - improved cycilder or open choke
Deer Hunting - Full choke and pattern different brands and sizes, If you are shooting 3" shells or better I would shoot 00 or 000.
If you are shooting 2 3/4" shells I would shoot 0 or 00.
If you do it right your gun will let you know what you should be shooting. Start your patterns at 50 yards and then move out farther.
To answer your original question though, yes a modified choke will work. Just do your homework and determine your effective range, brand and size of buckshot
