.669 vs .665 vs .658
 
I finally figured out that I have a .669 hastings choke. Do yall reckon going to a comp-n-choke in .665 or a .658 would give me a tighter pattern?
Benelli SBE 24 in. barrel.

Also, is the .658 too tight for the winchester x-tended distance? I havent heard much about it on this site, but the local gunshops claim they can't keep it on the shelf!

Personally, in my findings, I shoot my standard full choke that came with my SBE. It's constriction is .695. I also shoot hevi-shot 3 1/2" #5's. At 50 yards I can put 16 pellets in a turkey head and neck target. just my opinion though.

only way to tell is to pattern them all. ive had my best luck with chokes around .660 with my remington 870
