Title: Choke for 12 ga Benelli M2, 2oz Hevi 13 #7??
Post by: MikeStaten on February 22, 2013, 08:25:13 AM
Looking for a choke for my Benelli M2 using 3" Hevi 13 #7 shot.  Any suggestions for that gun/load combination?  I realize I'll need to pattern them to test them out but with the price of chokes theses days, I'd prefer to start with one that has been tried out with decent results. 

Thanks,
Mike

Indian Creek, And Jelly head have been my two best, and a Wright's No. 3 is right there in the mix as well. If I was to pick only one, It would be the indian Creek.

I shoot the hevishot choke in my SBE2 and get awesome results with the #7's.

Hey Mike,

We were pretty overwhelmed at the Convention by folks who'd been using the Wright's #3 and came by the booth to tell us about their results with it.

It's certainly one to consider.

Thanks,
Clark

660 to 665 will make her talk.  ST or IC or may see what PG got.

I have a M2 coming with 21" barrel, same situation.  I may be leaning on going with the blend over the pure #7.  Can't you reach out a bit further with the blend?
