Self explanatory. I have stock rem 870s. Will it hurt to shoot slugs from what I think is a modified choke?

I would use the most open choke that you have.

You got one that says "improved cylinder"? If so, use that one.

I wouldn't even shoot modified. Just open cylinder or improved cylinder.

How many "notches" on the lip of the choke tube?

1 notch = full choke (most restrictive)
2 notches = improved modified
3 notches = modified
4 notches = improved cylinder
5 notches = cylinder (least restrictive)

I would't use any choke with under 3 notches in the lip of the choke tube.
