Default RE: Full or Super full choke?

ORIGINAL: Hurricanespg
Personally, I would go with an Indian Creek choke tube, and Hevi-13 3" 2oz #6's and see what kind of pattern it gives you.
That's actually excellent advice!!! A Black Diamond Strike choke from Indian Creek is simply awesome..... especially when used with that exact mentioned load of Hevi-Shot! [:-]

As the original poster stated, his pattern will indeed be tight at very close range.... something like a fist sized pattern at 10 yards to paper plate sized at 30 yards. I personally find that adding a red dot to my firearm for precise aiming has all but eliminated close range misses due to misalignment of iron (or fiber optic) sights.

This is your typical pattern with the above mentioned choke, @ 30 yards, using 3", 2oz, #6 Hevi-13... over 200 pellets in the head and neck



Good luck and good shootin'
