Got her a Remington 20 gauge 870 slug, put a 3x9x40 Zeiss conquest on top with Leupold rings. She is ready to run up and down the river chasing deer on the corp land with me now.

I wouldn't mind doing some river running and hunting. I got s 12 ga 870 set up. Mine has red dot but this has me thinking about scoping it.

I have a bushnell shotgun scope on mine. I have the fully rifled barrel. With the Remington Acutip slugs I can hold a 1.5 - 2" group all day. The deer a have shot with it have fallen where they stood. Very good deer/hog gun.

Accutips or Remington Copper Solids would be my first two choices. The 2.75" shells do fine; no need to spend the extra money on the 3" shells in my opinion.
