Im looking into buying a fully rifled deer barrel for my wife's rem 1100 20 ga. Hastings makes a fully rifled deer barrel both in just rifle sights and in a cantiliver deer scope mount.Gun is equipped with a b-square scope mount right now. Just want opinions on whether to buy the cantiliver deer barrel or just the rifle sights barrel and use b-square

the big advantage of the cantilever barrel is the scope is removed with the barrel so it always stays sighted in with the barrel.
the big drawback is it raises the scope up quite a bit, especially if you run a large scope.
if its going to be a dedicated slug gun, you'll be fine with the b-square.

red dots legal for you in Iowa?
would be nice on a shotgun. The way I read Ok regs, Im not allowed to have any site that is battery powered. I think tritium is ok, but no electronics.

yes red dots are legal in iowa and yes that red dot on that 20 ga is a lethal combonation perfect for timber shooting and driving thick timber
