UPDATE:

So I bought my 870 Express and slapped a Nikon 3-9 x40mm SlugHunter scope (Nikon 6791) onto the cantilever rail using a set of weaver steel GrandSlam rings.

Loaded up some 3" Winchcester Partition Gold sabot slugs and set the target at 20 yards.

First shot was 5" left and 5" low.. Put the gun in a vice, lined up with the target and adjusted scope to the point of impact.

Moved the target to 40 yards and put the second round right through the center.. The third round went right though the hole of the second round but off just under a 1/4 inch..

Next I have to move the target out to 50 yards and double check but it looks like its lined up pretty good and flying the Partition Golds pretty straight.

Tried posting pic but it will only display a link..
