Remington 870 SPS Turkey setup

Post by Buckeye3405 »

This gun belonged to a good friend of mine who we lost to pancreatic cancer in 2019. I bought the gun off his wife in 2020 and finished the setup today. Installed an Indian Creek .665 choke and added a saddle mount with Holosun 510C circle dot sight. Should be a Turkey slayer! I have some federal 3” TSS #9 and Longbeard XR 3” #6 on hand.

A great way to pay homage to your fallen friend!
It's gonna be a special day when you whack that first bird with it! 👍

Thanks! I live in eastern Ohio and I plan to hunt OH and PA this spring. Possibly WV too if I have time. Should be a good season!

That’s awesome to keep on hunting it in his memory!

Looking forward to seeing dead gobblers with it

Thanks!! He was very special to me. I actually called in his first Turkey back 11-12 years ago and he shot it with this gun he had just bought a week or two prior. He had that bird full body mounted and never shot another one, I bet that gun hasn’t been shot 10 times in its life yet. That day he shot his first Turkey we killed a double. Great memories.
