what size choke would one use for 2 oz #6 lead shot in a 835
.675-.680
Thanks dirt road ninja I sure appreciate your reply!
Try a couple different chokes in those ranges. I shoot a 676 that gives me a great even hunting pattern with hevi 6s. I tried DRN's IC .675 and it shot terrible in my gun, but both size chokes shoot good in his gun. Just cause my 835/935 loves a certain choke does not mean yours will, but if you stay in that range you will find a killer. I shoot a .695 when shooting Hevi 7s. Good luck!

.670 to .680 is the norm. I shoot a .670 Pure Gold with my Hevi 7's
Thanks for all the replies
.675 range
.675 is a great place to start. I have a Carlson's I got on clearance at Midway USA for $15 that I use with MagBlends. Better numbers than my $95 Rhino in .695 with those shells.

I have shot an 835 and 935 for 23 years and have tried many different chokes and shell combos. The best I've ever found and currently use is a Truglo SSX .670 with Winchester long beard XR's....absolutely amazing results!!!!
