Most of my life I have been a 12 ga. shooter.. Now the old pump is getting a bit heavy.. I mostly hunt some sage grouse, and ringnecks... Mostly in the 12 I screwed in a modified choke and let it go at that.. But around 2000 I bought my wife a 20 ga. 870.. I still used the 12.. Then I grew tired of being asked where are my shells as we pulled in a place to hunt.. So I bought a second 20 for myself.. If I went alone, I went back to the 12, her hunting ended in 2006.. And the 20's have sat in the gun case since then.. Now I would like to give them a whirl this fall.. I was going to put in the mod. choke and have at it, but I also have an improved mod.. I was thinking that may be the way to go since I will be mostly shooting oz loads, with 1 1/4 3" for back up.. Those with experience what is your choice.. My dogs are goldens so I am not shooting over pointing dogs.. Thanks..
