I have a Remington 870 super-magnum.

I have a wingmaster barrel and a turkey barrel with a sight on it.

If i replace the choke on the turkey barrel, could i use it to shoot slugs?

What choke should i put on it?

You can shoot them out of that Wingmaster. If you want to shoot slugs to hunt game, get a slug barrel. For the 870 you can find them all over the place.

I own an 870 Magnum and use it for work several times. You can shoot slugs through your wingmaster but buy a slug barrel. You can pick one up for under 100 bucks.

I also have a Mossberg 835 Ultra Mag. Both are solid weapons but I tend to lean toward the Remington for work. I shoot slugs and shot through the same barrel.

**Side Note**

Atlantic Firearms has one hell of a deal on a FNL Tactical 12(police model holds 7rds) for $550. I picked one of these up as well for an upcoming maritime contract

I can see why HG would need a tactical shotgun, but why normal guys?
