Rex,
You cant go wrong with getting the 870 for deer hunting. Where Im from in NY my county is shotgun only also. For my deer gun I bought a 870 SP with cantileiver scope mount and love it. My 870 is built like a rock and has never jammed on me. I put a leupold VX-I 2x-7x scope on it and fire lightfield hybrid sabots. It is a solid 150yd gun/ammo combo for me. I've got 5 deer so far with it all one shot kills, no misses with it, and one of the deer was a doe at 130 yds. I carry it with the scope on 2x for quick snapshots/close range and crank it to 7x for the longer shots or for picking shooting lanes.
