I currently shoot a 870 SP with 23" bbl. I use an Indian Creek .665 choke with 3.5" Nitros and/or 3.5" MagBlends and its poison on the turkeys. I shot a Kick's GT .670 choke for years with 3.5" Winchester High Velocity #4s and was very pleased with that combo as well. If yours is a Wingmaster, you'll be shooting 3" shells, correct?

870, 3", win mags in 12 gauge #4's not sure on choke, take em all the time out to 60 yards, so I don't touch setup.
