When Remington was loading buckshot and turkey loads with Hevi Shot I got some of the 2 3/4" 00 12 gauge stuff to use in a Pre 64 Model 12 I had that sometime before I got it had a PolyChoke put on the end of the barrel . I do not think you could crank that thing down to tight for 00 in that gun . It shot some awesome patterns at 40 yards . But then 25 years ago at about $3 a shot it shoulda done very well .
