[QUOTE="Roughrice, post: 2626938, member: 118657"] Absolutely correct on this! /\ /\ We are serious duck hunters down here in South Louisiana. Tight chokes for lead shot were/are great for nice tight patterns. Steel shot act differently. Too tight of a choke will bounce steel shot off each other and throw flyers everywhere. We have done pattern tests and found that the modified to improved cylinder chokes work better and create great patterns. We did side by side tests of many brands of custom chokes and most are very good. Several of us settled on Carlson Mid-Range chokes. They are very affordable and are made for several shotgun manufacturers and pattern with the best for "all around" hunting....(duck with steel, dove, rabbit and squirrel with various sized lead shot and power loads) **[B]NOTE[/B]** I strongly suggest NOT using ported chokes. They pattern great but your buddy will hate you and throw you out of the blind! [/QUOTE]
