Title: Longbeards and pure gold chokes?
Post by: hoyt0008 on April 06, 2014, 06:44:56 PM
Was wondering if anyone is shooting a pure gold choke with the new Winchester longbeards? If so what kind of numbers are you getting? The reason im asking I tried 3.5 inch #4 out my 870 today 20 inch barrel with factory turkey/predator tube was getting 150 in ten inch circle at 40.I know that's more than adequate but was wondering if I could maybe improve a little with a more open choke.

That's a lot of large shot going down that tube and you probably could use a more open choke with that combination.

Thanks,
Clark
