So thinking about purchasing the Federal Premium Heavyweight shells in 7's. These have the flight control wads and ported chokes aren't recommended.

Any suggestions as to what choke and constriction?

im using a ballistic specialties 690 ported choke and it shot very good.never tried any other chokes.

Timb -I would like to try some federals , but I would hate to damage by stuff - But seeing you had no issue , I might contemplate doing the same thing

Thanks for the replies..I'm nervous about using a ported choke with the flight control wads, but I'd love to try that heavyweight shot at 1300 FPS.

im not sure i would worry about the ports as much as i would wad strippers.

I was under the assumption the 12s were flight control wads but the 10s were not-has that changed since they came out?

Why does'nt Federal put out a heavyweight turkey load with a regular steel shot wad and buffering that you could shoot through ANY choke. with that 15cc pellet density they would fly off the shelves. a 2.25 oz. 10 ga load of Heviweight 6's or 7's, WOW!! Listen up Federal you're missing out!
