Ditch the choke and the gun will be bad ass.
Camp is where you make it.

For me, the optics are about seeing the sight clearly, tough at my age, and also to prevent missing because of poor holding under stress and from an awkward position. I’m putting a tiny prism on my .410 SS, and likely a FF3 on the O/U I pick up tomorrow. The .410 is getting a rail, the O/U a rib mount. I'm curious how you're doing a optic mount on a OU and the model. FF3 Trijicon makes a rib mount as well. The downside is that the rib does need to be milled and the mount is only for the RMR foot-print. Had one a few years back mounted on a 450/400 Nitro Express conversion built on a J.P. Sauer SxS.
I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.

Update-I put the 870 plan aside for now. Finding affordable ammo to properly pattern with is next to impossible. Luckily it is my BIL’s and we agreed the he will hold into it and I can buy it at same price later unless someone really wants it more than me. That being said my 14 yo daughter got her fist bird this season, and I have one tag punched, both with a Beretta 20 gauge- factory full choke and Winchester XR’s. Sadly I only have a few shells left but should only need 2 more to close out tags! Thanks again for all the info.
