Default RE: benelli chokes

Dont know exactly what Benelli uses but these are the common abreviations for chokes. (*asterisk are used also*)

Cylinder " C"

Skeet 1 " SK"

Improved Cylinder " IC"

Light Modified " LM"

Modified " M"

Improved Modified " IM"

Light Full " LF"

Full " F"

Extra Full " XF"

Some chokes have retrictions marked in 1/1000ths of an inch, such as .030" which would be a " modified" choke.



hope this helps, doubleA

My new Benelli shotgun came with 3 chokes. The full choke said right on it, " Not to be Used With Steel Shot" , so check out yours too if you intend to use steel.
Good shooting and have fun.
