Seems to me I recall that gun pretty well. Never should have..... oh hell.
"An object at rest remains at rest, and an object in motion remains in motion at constant speed

Newton's First Law says to me that a cylinder bore will alter the direction and spread less than a choked bore. I have patterned a couple guns that have had their barrels cut to an extent that NO choke exists. I was amazed to see that the pattern is very much tighter than a lightly choked bore, up to a point where air resistance also begins to affect it.
