Choke or no Choke?
« on: August 23, 2012, 06:39:41 PM »
I am looking into putting a choke on my Remington 870E but I am not sure which one to use.  Im not really even sure if i should even use one. What do yall think...

Get a kicks high flyer choke. You can hit yotes allot farther out with a shotgun that way

 My carlsons dead coyote choke  with 12ga 3" 00buck gets almost all the shot in a 3" spot  at 50 yrds. havent shot it farther than that yet. With a mod choke  shoting at a 3x3 board it was all over but in the kill zone. So pick a good long range choke and put a hertin on em! :tup:

I'm not sure I understand the question. You can't shoot a shotgun that is threaded for choke tubes without a tube screwed in, or you will ruin your barrel. But I'm not sure if tha'ts what you're asking. 

Do you mean should you purchase an aftermarket choke tube for possibly a tighter pattern?

Just remember with a good choke and tighter pattern the better your aim must be.... It only takes one pellet to kill in a 1 foot pattern @ 50 yards..... And a dozen to miss @ 50 yards because of snap shots and the pattern doesn't open till close to 75 yards.....
