So, I'm just trying to confirm that the 661 OR .668 it comes with is worthy OR is it going to destroy the pattern? Before a waste my time & money patterning this choke, it seemed smart to ask you all. Our season starts in 4 days, so I'm out of time!
I am going to bag my first Turkey this spring if it is the last thing I do!

Those 835's really like a constrition from .670-.675.
Pure Gold .670's, Truglo SSX .670's wok well, as do Indian Creek .675, and SumToy .675's
Those would be the chokes I would start with. The SSX is the most reasonable of the 4, but those are all good places to start. Good luck!

Depending on what your looking for pattern wise. My 935 shot pretty good with a .690 JellyHead. 208 in 10" at 40 yds with 3.5" Hevi-13 #6s.

Good advice.

The ssx .670 in my grand slam 935 is absolutely awesome with 3.5 " magblends@35 yards the turkey head target is destroyed.lol..not a open spot on the target..very even pattern

I get outstanding patterns with my 835 shooting Nitro's and MagBlends using a Rhino Choke (.695).

Kevin 2, I just shot my old, tried and true MB 835 UltiMag ( old "corncob" pump version) with a Sum Toy .675 and 3.5" hevi shot 7 shot and was blown away by the results.  I had 14 pellets in the head and neck @ 50 yards, and another 2 dozen that hit the top of the breast.

The guys on this site were instrumental in my decision, as many of them use this setup with great results .  Good luck
