Why my 20 bore Sterly Ejector was made with .626" diameter bores and 41 points of choke in the left tube is anyone's guess.

With this as background I wonder what the bore sizes measure on yours? frank
Just got around to measuring mine...

Right bore in beyond the 4” of choke taper is .620 and the left bore in beyond the 5 1/2” of choke taper is .622”

What does that tell you Frank?... if anything?
