Just curious to see what kind of loads youMossberg 500 ownersare using? Also what kind of choke? The reason i'm asking is that i'm trying to get my gun to shoot flater. And i'm not sure if it's the load i'm using?the choke? maybe something else? Thanks for any help.
For my 12ga Mdl 500 I use two chokes and; two loads. Both chokes are Cabelas® (manufactured by Carlsons®), a .660" & a .665". Lead load:Federal® MagShok™ 1¾oz #5 shot w/ FliteControl™ wad. Heavier than lead: Hevi13™ 1 5/8oz #6 Hevi•Shot™.

For my Mdl 500 20ga also use two chokes but three loads..........

For Lead: Swarm™ .555" choke with either Winchester® Supreme™ 1 5/16oz #5 shot & Federal® MagShok™ 1 5/16oz #6 shot.

For heavier than lead: Hastings® .570" Extended Turkey Choke with 1¼oz #6 Hevi•Shot™ (Hevi13™).
