I need a cheap choke (< $40) for my little gun. Ive about made up my mind that i want to shoot Hevi 7's out of it.
I read that someone got 150's out of a similar setup with a Gobble stopper Xtreme (.565). With the short barrel I think I might need a tighter constriction than the RSF offers. 150's are good enough for me so I may go with the GSX but before I do I wanted to see if anyone had experience with anything else.
What about the Strut Stopper Xtreme?
I appreciate it

Just ordered my yesterday. It will shoot everything from Hevi-Shot to Federal HW. Get's pretty good reviews here on OG.
Remington super full
I am shooting the Gobble Stopper Extreme out of mine with lead #5's and it throws a great dense even pattern out to 50 yards. It is almost too tight for me at 20 cause it is about the size of a girls softball at 20 steps.
Needless to say I put rifle sights on that gun.

i use the tightwad in my sons little 20 works good
I use the Carlson .575 in my 870 with the Federal HW #7's
For the H-13 #7's, the GSX gave me 150's and the SSX gave me 130's. The RSF also did 130's. The best pattern I got is with a hastings .562 and the Fed HW #7's. That choke and load got in the 170's. That is with a Rem 870 compact with a 21" barrel.

I had the Jellyhead shoot in the 160's with that load and gun.
Not alot better than what you're getting already but if you want to try and count a few more holes it might be an option for you to look at.
The SSX gave me 150's
