Well I found a browning mod that fit.He didn't have ic.I'll keep looking or maybe order the briley but at least I can hunt this week.Anybody want to explain the difference between b,bb, and #2 to me?I'm cooking up some venison stroganoff if you want any....

Thanks John, the "stock choke" is a modified choke. I plan on patterning it this friday.

Thanks Johnch, I guess I'm really wondering how much difference it really makes at say 40 or 50 yards?At 60?

IMO if you are shooting steel look at BBB out to 50 yds.
Steel looses to much at longer ranges ,50 is about the ethical max.
Yes you can brake a honkers wing or luck out and hit the neck or head at longer ranges .
But you will wound lots more than you will kill , lots of witch will fly away making you think you missed and then die later.
Also the birds will be harder to call in next time. Call the birds in close.
If you want to shoot farther use Hevi shot !!!!!!!!!!!!

"BBB steel is good out to 50 yards" Does the shell size matter?
will 3 1/2 " reach out and touch them farther or does it just through more shot at the geese than a smaller shell size?
