effective range on deer of 20 ga #3 buck 2 3/4"?

My son wants to kill a deer with his 20ga. He has #3 buckshot in 2 3/4". Ima put him on a stand where the longest shot he will have is 60 yards. But I'm wondering if that's too far? What are yalls thoughts? I'm not even sure what choke it has. Modified or full I'd imagine.

Hope your son got one Joe. Get a chance, we can see how it patterns as was mentioned. Give me a call and we can go to Magnolia to see how it does. Got a couple of 20 870 barrels we could take. Let me know. Got a 12 gauge that looks like the fella dragged it behind his truck to the deal (JK, call me and we can go out tomorrow) you could borrow.

That's all that counts.
