As Dean says
Choke is based on a percentage of the shot in a 30” circle at 40 yards (except for .410 I think) Pick a pellet size and load. Count the pellets in that load and then fire a few at a pattern board - count the holes in the circle and average it out BTW. Different pellet sizes may pattern a just a little different in the same gun. So go with the load you will use

Keavin is this what you are seeking ? I seem to recall a similar chart in TPS as well concerning the choke percentage figures.

Did Remington state the circle size and distance? |

Every Remington Arms Co. hang-tag I've found states 30-inch circle, 40 yards --
