I use a B Square saddle mount with a red dot on my 870 Magnum for turkey.it works great and holds a zero.

There’s several saddle mounts out there that work. I tried two of the cantilever mounts and both bent within a few shots. I think because they’re not fully supported by the rib and recoil slams the scope up/down and the rail bends. Put on a tru-glow saddle and I’m quite happy with it.

No experience with halo but red dot- reflex sights work well as long as you don't use over 4 moa size dot as it tends to cover the target over 50-60 yds or so depending on size of target of like turkey heads. Deer sizes just fine. Dan.

Holographic sights work well, just have to be aware of parallax. The good ones have very little, but the budget halo scopes have a bunch. I have a sightmark ultra that's really good. and very slight parallax beyond 25 yards. I just couldn't justify $450 and up for an aimpoint or eotech for a scatter gun, but sightmark is around $125

Have several friends who use them and swear by them. one buddy has one on every shotgun he owns, just be sure its a 3 moa dot and not an 8
