I think that price is high you can buy an m2 for about $950-$1000. I just bought one for my wife last spring. And the gun I bought was lh and camo and still was under $1000.
I was told that is was not good for a kicks choke to shoot XR shells or hevi shot or HD shells. That they are meant for lead or copper plated shot only.
is this true
I use a trulock .665 with winchester #5s 3.5" This patterns well. Kicks is also making a choke for the sbeII I have one for my sbe I and it patterns awsome 35-40 hits in the kill zone at 40 yards.
the kicks choke I have is .660.
hope this will help.
