I have Sumtoy and JEBS to try whenever I get a chance.
Several others make .410 chokes as well.

Where did you pick it up? Meaning is it exclusive only for certain stores.  I'm assuming there is a 20ga also in this pattern(?).

Here in Illinois, nothing smaller than a 20 gauge can be used for turkeys. Both of the those I took this spring were about 20 yards away and could have easily been taken with a .410 instead of my Remington 870 12 gauge. As you know, the problem with shooting turkeys at that close range is the need to really have the bead on the head to avoid a tight pattern missing the bird.

That's a beauty. I am very interested in seeing your pattern pics when you're done. Thx for the share and good luck with it.

It's a weaver rib mount. I cut about 3.5 inches off and had to open the slot up some so fast fire picatinny mount would fit the slot.
