Title: Choke suggestions 11-87 compact
Post by: zeke632 on January 07, 2021, 11:02:33 AM
Any suggestions are appreciated for a 20ga 1187 compact I bought for my granddaughter. She's most likely to be shooting Apex #9s.   Thanks!

I have a Sumtoy .562 that is like new in the package that I fired 4 times...shot #9 Federal great...290+ at 40 out of a 21" barrel. Sold my Remington because I got a good deal on an Affinity. $65 plus $4 shipping to you...these are great chokes for TSS #9 and I would keep if I still used a Remington...it's the constriction Sumtoy suggested for that shot size in that gun.... By the way, I ordered a Sumtoy in the same constriction for the Affinity...that's how good they are...

That 562  choke should work good with the Apex.    :icon_thumright:

Carlson 575 out of my 870 compact with Federal TSS #9s throws a great hunting pattern. I don't have numbers but it's more than sufficient

I shoot a primos tightwad in mine. It won't win any pellet counting contests but throws a great hunting pattern.

The $20 Remington Super Full has worked well for me in my 870s and 1187.
