Oh Yeah

What wrenchman said. Unless it has good eye relief use a shotgun scope. I used a Leupold VXII 1x4 on my 870 and 11-87. 4x is good enough for any slug gun. Most you will shoot is probably gonna be a couple hundred yards. If you are walking to the stand keep the darn scope on it's lowest power too. That seems to be the time you see those big'uns. I always used the old weaver V1.5x4.5 on my old 1100 slug gun. Shot more than 100 with it. 2x7 is as powerful as I would go myself
