Title: Debating between two chokes for sx3?
Post by: RiverRoost on February 15, 2016, 09:36:54 AM
I'm debating between ordering a Rob Roberts or and Indian creek choke for my SX3longbeard edition. Any recommendations?

I used an Indian Creek and loved it. I have found the IC chokes to be pretty consistent with anything I have put through them. I think it throws a pretty usable pattern, open enough at 25 but still dense enough at 40.

from what I have seen come in the shop that we test fire to compare.  The IC or Kicks seem to be the two that give best patterns.  I know we put 670 to 675 in our choke.  Kicks you see 680 and the IC most are 665

I get great patterns with the RR .660. Also much easier to clean than the Indian creek.

I had a browning gold (basically same gun) and had great success with the RR .660 as well.
