What can you tell me about them, and if anyone can post some pattern pics it would be nice.
They are expensive and really do not out class other chokes that are cheaper. They are a good choke, but I can get the same for my needs out of something more affordable. Many shoot them and are happy.

They are very high quality, made from 17-4PH stainless steel bar stock with very close tolerances. Impressive "internals" and high performance, high quality patterns from all I've seen.
They've compiled an impressive list, in a very short time, of wins in still target competition, with several World Championships and World Records.
Everyone that I've spoken with who shoots them is very pleased with their performance and from what I understand, most of their business is from referrals of current customers.
The 2015 Winchester catalog has a picture of Bobby Sears and his record breaking target in it. I saw a number of non-record targets that he shot and was very impressed with the 10" patterns.
It's a very good product.
Thanks,
Clark
Clark, are the patterns of such that they are an even distribution over the pattern or do they have a "hot" core area?
They are just as good as the other quality chokes that cost about half as much, no better or worse on average.

What I'm always looking for is a well distributed pattern with no large gaps. I define a large gap as one that is 2" or more, that is a blank space in which a 2" circle does not touch a pellet. When scoring targets, I "dot" each hole so that it's very clear where pellets hit and in that way I can easily evaluate each one.
In my most recent work in which I shot 32 different configurations of chokes in 6 different shotguns with WLB shells, there were many chokes that produced excellent patterns. JEB's was among those, and just to test my memory, I just looked back to see if some were "center dense". I did see one that was but the rest of the pattern was well disbursed.
By the way, that evaluation will be published about the middle of February and you'll be able to see the targets, a chart showing the results and how the work was done.
I hope it will be helpful.
Thanks,
Clark
I spent some time with Bobby and Jimmy at Jebs a couple days ago. What they did with my 870 was impressive. 286 pellets in a 10 inch ring at 40 yards with Winchester longbeards
Over priced and no better than anything else out there. Just have William at Sumtoy cook ya up something for half the price of the Jebs and works just as good if not better. Plus he is a fun feller to talk to on the phone!

How many total pellets are in that load? Pretty impressive.

. ^^^^ THIS^^^^
Foreman, I'm not sure how many exact pellets are in that shell. According to Bobby, over 90% of the payload was in the 20 inch circle
I'm a little late to this conversation, but my nephew bought a Jebs for his goose gun and was very pleased with it. He's shooting an A400 Baretta.

394 in 3" 6s or 450 in 3.5" if they are true size 6s
I don't personally own a Jeb's but from what I've seen they are high quality. I have not seen any one post a bad pattern while using one which saves time and money.
I visited with Bobby and Jimmy for a bit in Nashville, and whether I buy one or not they are some knowledgeable and very nice people.
Remember sometimes you get what you pay for.
Sometimes you get less than you pay for. That is life. I think it will be a very good choke, just know that I can get similar hunting patterns for a bit less. Good luck.
Davis has it right. You will pay more but you will not get any more.
I think my statement was misunderstood. What I ment by paying for what you get is customer service after the sale. No Jebs isn't the only one like that. I've dealt with others like William at Simtoy, and Rob Roberts. Yes I'll admit they ain't cheap.
With a 100% money back guarantee you can tho wrong..... I bought one over the weekend..
These guys came on here a few years ago trying to push their chokes as being the "holy grail" of chokes tubes and basically bashed their competitors. They didn't last long on here, don't hear much from them now. Anyone else recall the unprofessional attitude these guys displayed? Seems like they had a vendetta against one particular custom choke builder. I think their price was $150 back then, they are starting to come a little closer to reality now. A good product will sell itself. Seems like the Jebs chokes are always getting a big "push". Just sayin.

Yep I remember. Not the warmer welcoming they were hoping for. Because they offer returns it's worth trying but as others have said there are other companies with chokes and customer service just as good for half the price.
over priced big time
there are several chokes for a lot less that does just as good
