Title: Choke tube and shells for my Beretta AL 391 12ga
Post by: memert116 on March 19, 2014, 09:29:25 PM
Looking for suggestions for my 12ga Beretta AL391 Urika; trying to decide on a Rhino or Pure Gold.  I'm also thinking about using Nitro Ammo 4x5x7 ammo.  Currently using the original mobilchoke full choke with Remington Magnum #5's in 3"
I tried a Kicks choke but the pattern wasn't as good as the original.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

I have a A400 Xtreme and get my best results with a Pattern Master & Sumtoy choke. I shot a Rhino and got a killing pattern, but the two prior chokes gave me the best (even / dense) pattern at 40 yards.
I believe, but could be wrong, the bore diameter are equal in the 391 & A400.

That was my issue with the Kicks.  It gave a killing pattern but the original gave me a more consistent/dense pattern.  Not heard of the two chokes you mentioned but will do some research on them.  Appreciate the info...thanks!!

3 inch gun run a 650 and 31/2 you can go up to 660.

Shot good hunting patterns out of my Urika with Pure Gold .670 and hevi 6's, 7's, and Magblends. Nothing to write home about. Haven't tried another choke out of the gun besides kicks .670 and didn't care for the patterns.

Did the POA/POI stay on with the hevi 13 choke and magblends? I have one of these chokes in my xtrema. Wondering what it would do in the Urika.

I have had success with a Carlson choke and Hevi 6's in my 391 Urika.
