Title: Choke Tube suggestion for Benelli Supernova 12Ga
Post by: mikeyfuzz on December 06, 2011, 02:40:39 PM
Im looking for suggestions for a new choke tube, i currently use the factory choke.  I shoot mostly 3 inch 5's and 6's through my Supernova.  Thanks in advance for any help.

We setup my buddys Nova with a JH .655, and I can't remember the numbers, but the patterns were very even and dense at 40 yards with hevi-13 3-2-6.
Hope this helps.

I'd recommend the Hevi-13 Turkey Choke or the SSX. Both work very well in my Nova and also in the SBE.

Thanks,

try the search option and put supernova pattern; You will find lots of info and also some pattern pics too. Indian creeks give good results as you will see mentioned, Ive tried several in my supernova and havent found anything that outshoots the jellyhead .655 in it. Magblends and hevi 7s give incredible patterns!

647-650 or 670-675 will work fine with them. :icon_thumright:

How deep are your pockets?
A good shell will be more beneficial then a good choke.

I have a JH .655 for my nova 28" - I had a batch of h13's 2.25 #6  a few years ago that were more like #7's but anyways they threw a awesome pattern , something like 280-290 cant remember now - the #6 Winchester elites threw about 170 - I still have this gun in my safe and it is the best shooting 12 gauge I have ever owned , shoots dead on too
