Hello everyone. I I have a Mossberg Maverick 88 12 gauge, with two barrels, the 18.5" security barrel, with a bead sight, and the 28" field barrel, with a vent rib and 2 beads.
The 28" takes Accu-choke tubes, and the 18.5" is a cylinder bore, not threaded for chokes.
This is my do-it-all hunting shotgun, (for now) and I am in the process of setting it up as such. It would be used for deer, coyotes, squirrels and rabbits, and possibly hogs, although I've never seen any where I hunt. I don't plan on hunting any high flying waterfowl, or any other birds.
I noticed that Mossberg offers a 20 inch vent rib barrel, that takes Accu-choke tubes. This looks like it would be great for what I need.
The only drawback I can see is the price Mossberg is charging for it. Their website lists it for $207.00.
I'm wondering if this would be worth the money, or would it be better to invest in more ammo and range time?
I would hate to spend almost as much as the gun itself, if it wouldn't make a big difference.
Thanks in advance,
