I have a hevishot choke .676. WOuld a more open tube work better with Longbeard #6's? Any help would be appreciated.
The best part about LBs is that they're cheap enough to experiment with. So my guess is that it depends on the gun.
tighter maybe, .660, .665
Depends how your gun shoots now and what you are looking for.
I have a .667 and a .685 for my Inv+ set up and there aren't very many more in the 10" with the tighter choke but the 20" coverage is a little better with the .685 Hastings.
Personally I like the wiggle room the .685 gives me for my style of hunting in heavy hardwoods timber.
I have a Gobbling Thunder in.665 and use Long Beards #6 with good results coming out of my Winchester 1300. :firefighter:
I use a .660 Carlson's out of my mossy 500 with #5's, does great out to 40 and maybe a few paces more for fudge room.

Thats a good choke in the 835. Should be just the ticket for the #6 Longbeards. Should break 200. I use a stardot .676 and a kicks .680 in my 935 with LB#4s & 5s and get good patterns
I tried them with a Kicks .655 in my Encore and wasn't impressed..
