It might give you an extra 10 yds. out to 50 yds.,but,isn't that a tad tight with that shot size?Quote:

I have never tried it, nor would I. There’s lots of conflicting information out there about that, but I was told by a gunsmith, not to use a turkey choke with buckshot. He recommended improved or modified. My worry would be a bulge in the barrel or at the very least, making choke removal difficult .Quote:

Pattern it to find out. I've patterned buck through full chokes and didn't find the results better than IC or mod.Quote:

So probably my factory modified will do fine then. I’ll pattern it and see.Quote:

boom buddy. i plan to throw in some number twos for the walk in with a slug as my last shot, just in case i jump a bunny or a napping yote. at that point, when i sit down and shut up i can throw whatever is preferred. mod choke gives you the best options for just about any surprise :)
