Title: 24'' Benelli M2 barrel or BUL w .562 or .570 Sumtoy
Post by: Oreegun on February 10, 2021, 01:49:24 PM
Anyone have examples or thoughts on these chokes with either gun with a 24'' barrel?

Alot to do with what shell and how dead you want to kill it.

FWIW,  I shoot a Nova 20 gauge with 24" barrel.  For me shooting Federal Heavyweight size 7, the .570 out performed the .562 by a good bit.

Apologies, I should have specified 20 ga 3'' Federal 1 /12oz number 9's.  Also wondering about how a .555 Sumtoy performed with a similar barrel and gun.

I'd like to try the Apex 9's as well.

Open that gun up a little from the .555. The .562 Sumtoy or .570 Jebs is what I run and both are deadly....

Thanks for the input everyone.  Was considering a .555 Sumtoy but that might be too tight at 10 yrds.  Its looking like I should stick with a .562

I shoot a 562 sumtoy in the same setup and it's whicked. Killed a turkey farther than I care to say last year in kansas. I shot nitro 7.5x9 blend tss. I'll be ordering another to put in my other m2 I'm setting up. No doubt solid choke.

I shoot the .555 IC in my M2, Compact 20. Its wicked at 40 yards, average 280 in ten inch circle and no holes in a 20 inch circle!! Will hopefully be able to show some birds with it this year!!
