I'll second the Rhino Choke. A Rhino and Remington hevi shot #6s out of my wife's 20 is deadly at 35yds. Tom

If you really want to see what that 20 will do contact the folks at

www.nitroammunition.com (http://www.nitroammunition.com)

and ask them what you can expect out of their loads and a Rhino Tube.

Ive shot Hastings,Comp n Choke, Briley, rifled turkey chokes, ported, non ported, and extended. With I dont know how many different loads out of automatics and pumps. Ive spent literally hundreds if not over a thousand dollars trying to get a gun that will kill a turkey out to 60 yards 100% of the time.

The Nitro shells with a Rhino tube are by far and away the cheapest and best perfoming "system" I have ever shot. Those that have seen my test patterns always go to Nitro to get a tube and a box of shells. The best part is it takes one phone call and about a half dozen shots to prove it to your self........You will not doubt there is anything any better....

Out of my Barretta Extrema 3.5:

At 40 yards I put over 300 pieces of shot in a 8.5 x 11 in. piece of paper.

At 20 yards it will leave a whole just a bit bigger than a baseball.

At 75 yards it will consistantly put 12-18 shot in the vitals of a turkeys head......:eek:

We tried the Nitros in her 20 and for some reason the Remington hevi shot actually out performed the Nitros. My bud at the local gun shop said it happens sometimes with the 20/Nitro combo but never with a 12 gauge. Tom

Is your wifes 20 a pump or an auto? If a pump did you try the nitros with the stock full choke that came with the gun?

Maxcam, I honestly can't remember. I know I've tried four different chokes and two different shell combos. The hevi shot with the factory modified choke patterned better than all but the Rhino. It is an 870 express. The Rhino is the constriction that Nitro recommends. We're happy with the Rhino/Remington hevi shot combo.Tom
