Pretty sure that is night vision scope, on a .458 SOCOM. That's definitely a hog gun.

Looking For A Good Deer Shotgun?
I didn't want this to get lost in the "Range Pics" thread so I'm making a separate thread. I guess I could have put this in the "Show Us Your Hunting Rig" thread. I'll leave that up to the Mods.
Be that as it may, here's a chance to show off what your deer shotgun is capable of. Being as so many of us are forced to use them(and I used black powder for years in the Md firearm deer season until...), Lets see what is out there for others who face the dilemma of buying/choosing a new shotty for deer.
Took my Savage 220 to the range today to clean the cobwebs out of the barrel and this is what she did with Remington 2 3/4'' Accutips. Four shot group shot in 15 minutes @ 100 yds. Not bad for a shotgun.

Those Savage 220's are truly incredible shoguns. Great shooting.

That's some mighty fine shootin' out of a shotgun.
I'm not a rocket surgeon, but that must mean the group would be 1/2 the size if the string took 30 minutes to shoot.

If I were to get a shotgun for hunting it would be a Savage 220. I have never heard a negative word about them.

For 650 bucks they better operate perfectly.

I didn't realize they were that cheap either. Last I checked they were between 650-700.

That's a great price.
I've seen them listed for more than 650. Maybe I was looking at MSRP.

Well depends on where im hunting,
In MD:
I use my 870 with my slug barrel, if i'm really going to be in the thick i opt for the rifled barrel with iron sights, I have an old banner fixed 4x on the top. Using Fusions i'm good with 2" groups out to 150 yds.
or i feel really special In MD i use the TC impact, cheap can use in shotgun season and i'm good out to a good 200 yards easy using BH209 and TC Shockwaves.
And If I'm in PA I can't not use my baby, my first deer rifle a 1979 Savage 170B in 35 Rem. Sighted in for zero at 150yds and minute of deer out to 300 with 200 grain Remington green box.
But I have been known as my granddad's win mod 94 pre 60 in 30-30 or a Pennsylvanian long rifle flintlock in 50 Cal
