SA28 choke

[Swampfoxforeman]

I'm picking up a SA-28. I've been considering buying a Sumtoy choke for it. Anyone have experience with the SA-28 with a Sumtoy choke, and #9 TSS?

If mine didn't shoot as well as it does with the Factory full choke there's no doubt that I would not have a second thought about getting a Sumtoy.  Williams choke tubes work fantastic. Plus if you don't get what you want to see, he will work with you until you are happy with it. That's customer service, with a smile.
1st thing I would try your factory full choke.

No experience with the Sumtoy but I've had 3 SA28's.  Unfortunately 2 had cycling problems and I sold them at a horrible loss. 
However they all patterned excellent.  Just depends on what kind of pattern you're looking for.  The Indian Creek .520 will give you a very nice tight pattern.  High numbers at 40 but up close it was too tight for me.
The IC .525 is probably what most people would want in an even hunting pattern.  I opted for a touch more, and shoot a TruLock .535 in mine now, which still has an excellent pattern but gives me a tiny more wiggle room for close shots, which most of mine are.
Anything .520 - .535 has worked great in my guns, and has worked great with a large variety of brands from FoxTrot, Apex, hand loads, Salt Creek, Viper, etc. 
All 3 of my birds last year were with Viper 10's and the TruLock .535.
TruLock also makes a .529 and .532, and I'm sure anything Sumtoy makes in that same range will be equally as good.

I have a Sumtoy choke, .522 in one of my SA-28 shotguns. I'm shooting Salt Creek 1 1/4 of #10's. I shot the 9's in it and it wasn't as dense as I wanted it to be. Maybe If I would shoot 1 1/2 oz of 9's it would be better. The choke has a nice open pattern in my gun and starts getting thin at 40 yards. Closer than 40 yards it's a real nice hunting pattern. The 1 1/4 loads are very low recoil.

We have found that the 9.5 in our choke shoots good.   Salt Creek was the best in test BUT that was a 9.5 rest was 9s.   That little 22 inch like the smaller loads also.   If you going to stuff big loads I think go big choke or go 20ga.     

Now all the other 28s did better than our test gun.   Something with the short barrel on it.

Sir with #9 TSS handloads what constriction you think?

.525 in mine with #9 tss

525 Indian CK with 8.5 is what I'm going to try. Most of my shots are within 30 yards or less ...

We tested a 515 Up to 530 and did not see alot of change.  We tried short long different stops it was crazy what we throwed at the short barrel.   Every choke and shell that worked in the long barrels did not work in that one.    We set on the 522 it gave a perfect hutting pattern not a paunch paper post all over facebook to pimp stuff. lol

Mr. SumToy I will have to agree the 522 produces one heck of a hunting pattern. Exactly what I was looking for. I don't have Facebook though, lol. Thank you for the recommendation!!
