Check with Trulock i'm sure they can help you. They have a great customer service. If you don't like the choke they have a 60 day exchange or refund.

I will tell you this....I have an A5 and I bought a pattermaster choke tube. I shot longbeard #5 and the pattern was high and to the left at 40 yards. Density was great but I would need adjustable sites or scope. I shoot federal flight controls out of it. Even though it's ported, flight control federals shoot well.

With waterfowl hunting and all the different wads and shot types, I avoid anything ported or any type of "wad-stripping" chokes.

Terror chokes put some awfully nice patterns on paper, but hearing tales of them bulging barrels I am not anxious to use them.

Briley, AnglePort, Trulock, and Carlson all have good reputations...

Here are my patterns and choke combo.  I will be shooting the Win LB #6, not for the pellet count, but because I can shoot with the factory bead.  (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160407/7af10e70f5fb16f769e86cb55a2895a0.jpg)(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160407/7695ec77ff4958fd652972321e117271.jpg)(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160407/4a6c244a0f5077dc7398d73fc9c3a341.jpg)

A buddy of mine is shooting the new A5 26" barrel and he is using the Rob Roberts .660.  He's had excellent results shooting the LB #5's.
