Title: Choke recommendations for Stoeger O/U
Post by: BC on April 10, 2013, 02:21:41 PM
I bought a Stoeger Condor 20 ga for my wife and I am looking for choke recommendations. I know they have the same thread patters as the Winchester, Mossberg 500, Browning Invector, and Weatherby chokes.

I plan on shooting Nitro straight 7's in it, and I want to make it a good 40 yard and in turkey gun. You guys give me some good recommendations on where to start.

I am leaning towards Indian Creek in a .562's right now. I've been hearing good things about them shooting TSS, but will they get good results with the Nitro #7's?

Help me out here fellas.

Just call Nitro and tell them what you are shooting and they will tell you a choke to run.

I would personally start with an IC 555 or Sumtoy 562.

Mine like the mossberg x-factor .584. Check out my patterns in the pattern section

Thanks for the feedback so far.


Talked to IC yesterday and they recommended the .555 black diamond strike. I haven't been able to raise anyone on the phone as of yet at Nitro Ammo Co.

I use a IC.555 in my 870 with a handload that is similar to the nitro #7's and I get excellent patterns with it.  Like Daman said try IC or Sumtoy.
