for the money a jelly head is hard to beat out of those.
I have killed a dump truck load of gobblers with an 835 and a hevi shot choke.

I have a jelly head in mine and like it.
I think hastings has one that is .670 .

for the 835, i'd recommend something in the range of .680 to .690. Everything I've tried that was smaller didn't do so hot.

I had a 835 and was very pleased with the Jellyhead.

Not about the 835, but just something to note, that COULD make more difference than how many pellets a certain choke will put in a circle at "x" yards:
REFLECTIVE SHINE.
Some after-market choke tubes marketed to turkey hunters have a very reflective, shiny finish, which can spook a turkey. I'd rather hunt turkeys with a dull factory choke than any of these that "shine".
Things may be different today, but a few years ago when I was doing lots of turkey choke testing, among the worst for reflective "shine" was the "Jellyhead".

Hasting has been out of busness for a couple years.

Correct. The 835 & 935 Mossbergs have 10 ga barrels, and choking them down to standard 12 ga constrictions hurts their pattern greatly. If your shooing #5 or 6 lead, a .670 is ok, but if your shooting and HTL shot, you need to open it up. A .685 is the tightest I would ever try and one of my 835's loved a .700 the best.
Even if they were, are out of business they are plenty of hastings choke tubes on ebay.
pure gold 670 throws great patterns in my 835 with 3in magblends and 3 in #6, on the other side with everything 3.5 690 jellyhead does the best in mineTheRealSpurhunter said:

If you want to go the cheaper choke tube route, I can 2nd this suggestion and I have a pattern paper somewhere if I can find it. Good even pattern with Hevi 3.5" #7's.

Cool, I guess somebody bought the brand and got it back running. Glad to see it.
