Title: TURKEY CHOKES!!!!!
Post by: Punisher on March 22, 2014, 07:05:28 PM
Does anybody make 10 ga. turkey chokes anymore?  Trying to find a Jellyhead for my Browning BPS, but apparently they don't make them anymore, nor does anyone else make any chokes for the 10 ga. either.  I have a Kicks .690 and .695, Bansner .695, CNC XXFull .705, Rhino .685, and a Hastings .700, but I am assuming none of these tubes are Hevi approved.  Can I still shoot Hevi through them or not?

All could find around here in Hevi was the 2 3/8 oz. #5s, Rockhound. Shot them through the Kicks .695 and .690.  The .695 threw beautiful, even patterns with a three shot average of 145 (141,146, and 148 in the 10").  I have three boxes of the Fed. HW #7s on the way.  I hope the Kicks .690 does as well in my BPS as it has with others on here.

I think I have 2 or 3 boxes of those straight 5s left, I got around 160 out of my kicks 690 and 720.

Those fed 7s put up around 230 out of my kicks 690

And the mag blend done 306 with the 690, but the 720 only shot 26?

Old Gobbler, how did the PG .690 pattern with the Hevi loads?  I can get the #5s locally.  Is it ported or is it the Tempest?

I shot nitros and fcw HW out of the pg its a stout choke -- pg doest make a tempest for 10 ga, so its ported

I personally would not use a birdcage style ports like ic or mad choke , I have my reasons -
