I was hoping to hear differences in % for the same gun and load. The X-Stream inserts opened my 10ga Remmy up by 35% or 3 1/2 "degrees" of choke to a very useful for some situations 58%. I was wonder if the Poly-Wad would do more or less opening of the pattern, if only one choke from IM it sounds like less compared to the X-Stream.
