Turkey choke constriction question.

[Ringbill27]

Morning all,

Now the gun/choke really isn’t important to my question. But I have two turkey shotguns.
1). Citadel Warthog 20” 12ga w/ beretta Mobil chokes
2). Silver Eagle Alpha 2 18” 12ga w/ benelli chokes
I took them out and patterned both 0.665 chokes and a variety of ammo the other day and wasn’t that happy with the 40yard patterns.

So I started looking at tighter chokes and it has me wondering if I should go to a .650 or just go to .640. I can’t really afford to keep buying $60-$100 chokes to find out I should have went tighter or they don’t shoot.

How much difference in pattern are you all seeing when steping down .015”?

PS. I run 12gas and lead it is what it is.

Both Carlsons and Rob Roberts have a great return policy. Buy a couple of each, try them, and only keep the best one.

My Benelli with apex #9s and factory full is all I would ever want out of a turkey gun to 40. I know the apex or whatever tungsten stuff is expensive but for my one a year turkey trip it’s awesome.
