Title: Kick's or Indian Creek for 1300
Post by: agent eight seven O on November 15, 2016, 09:04:11 AM
Anyone have any experiences with either of these chokes in a 1300? Oh yeah, 655 in Kick's. This would be with a 28" barrel and #6 shot or smaller. Thanks in advance.

Both are good chokes but you might want to look at this article and see the chokes that did best with the Invector barrels http://www.nwtf.org/hunt/article/choking-winchester's-long-beard-xr

All were with #6 shot and guns with 28" barrels.

Thanks,
Clark

Tried both on my Browning BPS which has the inventor barrel. The Indian Creek patterned much better for me. Use Win Extended Range #5's.

I have 5 win 1300's with about 25 different chokes to go with them. I do not like #6's therefore I never pattern them. However I have run thousands of 4's and 5's through them all. If your gun has sights I will say that the IC will be great. This choke patterns incredible but very rarely does POI match POA in any of them. I hunt a front bead only so I chose a different choke that hits more centered.

I have both. The kicks shoots long beards 3" #6 and the Indianan creek shoots heavy shot 3" #6. The Indian creek was so off from poa to poi I had to scope it. Either one will serve you well.

I have used both in my 1300 with both a 22" and 26" barrel.  The IC outperformed the GT in both barrels. I did not experience any poi problems with either choke shooting 90% Hevi 7's and the remainder LB 6's.

I can't believe the IC choke can be so deadly....wow
