Default black powder shotguns

I was just wondering. If you use a large diameter buck shot, and a tight choke (full or extra full), do you run the risk of the shot jamming up in the barrel resulting in a barrel explosion? Just a thought I've been wondering about.

I am not sure what that would do to a choke. I would suggest asking the manufacturer and see if they have some restrictions...
