Default Superposed Barrels and Chokes

I acquired a 1967 Superposed .410, RKST in what appears to be unfired condition.
Sold as a 28" Skeet, I was happy to measure the chokes and find Full/Mod.
Grade 1 Superposed wood lottery winner.





Lack of use didn't stop it's proud owner from taking it in and out of the safe a bajillion times.
Art's is returning the wood to "Factory New" and is installing a proper Long Tang.
Enter an in the white set of 28 gauge barrels, 28' Full/Full.





Art's filled in all the missing parts, carved it's own forend, and fit the barrels to the grade 1 .410.
I'm a skeet shooter, less an upland hunter. For fixed chokes I'm thinking
Improved Skeet/Skeet(.007/.005) or Improved Cylinder/Improved Skeet(011/.007).

I subscribe to the theory that less is more and currently have fewer guns than I've had in the past 20 years.
With fewer guns I'm looking for utilitarian overlap. Since this is a composed set and altering chokes won't land me a fiery spot in Hell,
why not shoot it all?

Why not Briley's ???
