What choke should i use for my benelli supernova?
I just bought a benelli supernova for the upcoming turkey season, and plan to replace the factory choke. I've heard good things about the primos jellyhead choke tube. Does anybody have personal experience with the jellyhead or have any other suggestions for what I should get? Ishoot Federal Premium Flight Control shells, #5 copperplated.

wow thanks that helped me out a lot. i agree the carlson choke produced the best pattern, but the jellyhead was close to it, and its not quite as expensive so i think i'll be going with the jellyhead. as soon as i test it out on the range i'll let you know the results. by the way, i have the supernova with the comfortech stock and 28" barrel. i've always preferred longer barrels, as they give you a better sight plane and seem to produce slightly better patterns. once again, thanks!

I just purchased a Super Nova and have axx-full Comp-N-Choke that my brother gave me. I put ten in the kill zone at 30 yards with Winchester Supreme #6, 3 1/2", 2 1/4 oz. load. That was with factory sights, which I plan on replacing. I shot a #4x#5x#7 Nitro through it at the same distance and had 26 in the kill zone. The best part of the load was to the right about 3-4 inches, so I hope to get my new sights on pretty soon. As impressive as the Nitro patterned I'm not sure I can spend $6 per shell.
Has anyone had any luck with any of the Hevi-shot loads?
