Title: Choke recomendation
Post by: IowaGobblers on March 03, 2014, 09:13:09 AM
What chokes and choke constrictions are you having the most success with LB #5's?
Thanks

My 23" 870Sm has shown some excellent patterns with the 3.5" LBs while using a .655 Kicks GT or .662 Hevi choke.  Both put up 165+ on the patterning board.

Forgot to add My mossberg 935 was awesome with a .670 Kicks when shooting 3.5" #4s.

I shoot a 21" 11-87 with .665 jellyhead with  3" #5 LB and do 180s in 10" at 40. My 26" M1 benelli does around 190 with a carlsons .650 with the same shell. M2 benelli did 180 with Indian Creek .665. I have patterns posted of the m2 and 11-87. I tried the #6 LB but my guns didnt like them. My friends gun loves the 6s. Hope this helps and good luck

In Remington using #5's I don't think you could go wrong with a .665 choke
