Title: Carlson .575 vs RemSF and FedHW 7s
Post by: Gumby on March 29, 2016, 10:23:55 PM
Anyone have experience with 870 youth 21" and Fed heavyweight 7s with these two chokes? How did they compare?

The remington super full with the federal hw 7 shoots in the 140s or better in my 21 inch 11-87 remington. Don't have the Carlson choke but have read that it's a great choke.     Cluck

Are you using the RSF rated for hevi shot or the standard lead only?

The Carlson's out shot the 4 other chokes I tried.  That said, I gave one of the chokes to a forum member and he got a WAY better pattern out of his 870 youth with that choke than I did.

Thanks guys I shot the Carlson and it was extremely even. Picked up this RemSF but haven't had a chance to shoot it yet so just trying to get as much info as I can.

I hear you but all the info in the world will NOT tell you what that particular gun will do with a setup until you actually shoot it. However info should get you not only in the ball park but somewhere in the infield.
