After doing some reading and talking, I want to get a little more open choke for mine. At this time I don't want to go the expensive route. I can get four different ones for around the same price. They are a Primos Tight Wad, Truglo Gobble Stopper Extreme, HS Undertaker, and a Hastings. Has anyone had any luck getting good results with those. I am just wanting one to try. If it doesn't do better I am going to just stick with the Gobbling Thunder I have now. I might try more later on but not before season.
 
I have only used the gobbling thunder in mine in a .690 & .675. The 75 does well with lead 5's & the 90 seems better with magnum blend hevi-shot. I have no option on those you listed. I won a contest thru Down-N-Dirty Outdoors and received a gift card from them. I plan on picking up "The Haymaker" that is made by Indian Creek. I am anxious to see how it will pattern.
 
I would stay awar from the tight wad and the hs undertaker. atleast they didn't do good at all out of my gun. and depends what shells you shoot as far as I know hastings are only rated for lead shot. so that's something to look into. ive never have used the truglo.
 
I will be using lead & trying Winchester longbeard 6's first. If they don't do any good I got some Winchester supreme 5's to try.
 
I got a Hastings in mine. I am pretty sure it's a .690 and I shoot federal flitecontrol shells #6s. Shoots great with that combination,
 
the 670 you have and the longbeards in 6 should be a winner they like to be choked from what im researching, the 690 jelly head can be had for around 25-30 bucks on oldgobbler in the classifieds it has been the best all around choke for different lead loads out of my 835's
 
This is what I am trying to beat if I can without spending a fortune. If Winchester hadn't stopped making the shells I used here I probably wouldn't be messing with nothing other than tryin the longbeards for the heck of it. This is @40 with Winchester Supreme 3.5" 2oz 6's.

 
The jelly head and Winchester supreme #5 gave me excellent patterns. It was around 145 in @ 10" circle at 40 yards
