skeeter,

Using an 870, 20" bbl (?), IMP cylinder choke & iron sights - Rems stock old time "deer barrel," PMC's Brenneke 1 oz slugs .... (pant

)

All but clover leafs at 25 yards & 2-2.5" at 50 yards.

Dave has posted a thread about tightening the tube cap one click past hand tight. Might wanna do a search to see if you can dig it up. Worth reading & may save you a trip back to switch barrels.
