[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1119504, member: 2736"] If you are using Heavy shot or steel shot the choke needs to be larger not smaller. It is recommended that with ether shot you use an improved modified choke for better patterns. The really tight turkey chokes are for lead shot only. I do my test using a 30'' circle with a 2'' dot in the middle @ 40 yards and expect to get at least 75 to 80% of the shot in the circle. Using this criteria I have consistently taken coyotes 65 to 70 yards using #2 and #4 lead shot. Where lead shot is not allowed, I use a imp. modified choke and a mod choke for best results. The reason the "Hard shot" don't like the tight chokes is, they don't compress well enough to pass through a full choke.
