When Tom Roster was writing a column for the American Shotgunner way back when, I wrote (yes pen and paper) asking his opinion on how to open a choke on a gun without removing metal. This was in the early eighties I was shooting a 26" VHE that was M/F. He said to simply cut the petals off a wad then use a fiber wad under the shot column to make up for the missing petals. It worked much better than spreader loads as there was still a good center density. Now a days I can't get enough choke. Funny how your perspective changes as you age.
