[QUOTE="AlongCameJones, post: 3595716, member: 47875"] As far as I know, Mossberg only offers ghost rings on certain tactical model shotguns from the factory. it sounds like putting ghost ring settup on a stock slug barrel might be a gunsmithing shop affair. [SIZE=4]I'm pretty sure I should now go with a cantilever scope setup for a "deer" shotgun. It's just a matter of getting the correct scope and rings. Leupold makes one shotgun scope, VX-Freedom 3-9x40 Muzzleloader UltimateSlam, but hot damm, it's $300. Then I need the correct rings. I have a new Leupold scope, VX Freedom 2x6x33mm, for my Ruger American Predator rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor but it's only a rifle scope. They will not take 12-ga. shotgun kick. I have the NIB Predator rifle up for sale, however, on Armslist. My heart is now set on finding a good pre-owned Savage Model 99 or a Husqvarna Model 3000 Crown Grade rifle for deer. I have another new Ruger American, a Ranch rifle in 5.56 NATO fro gophers. I don't mind a low-budget rifle for gnarly varmints but I now feel I need a classy old-school rifle for prestigious game like deer. The Ranch bolt gun has a cheap Bushnell 3x9 Banner scope. I don't mind a cheesy scope for cheesy targets like chucks, fox, coyote, prairie dogs and ground squirrels. The American Ranch is a novelty play gun for plinking fun and rats.
