BTW, when I bought the H&H Royal, I sent it back to Briley's for choke tubes, because I could not see myself owning a fixed choke gun with 0/.08 choke constrictions.
I bought the gun from Chuck Webb, and he understood, because set up all of my competition guns over the years.
Choke tube job was comped, BTW.
Funny story:
So I go on this bluegrouse hunt up on top of the Dunckley Flat Tops in CO. Elevation about 10.5k ft.
I back backpacked the H&H up, and knowing what altitude does to patterns, put in my most open pair of chokes. 05/10k.
The high altitude and thin air created super tight patterns that would break every bone in the bird if shot under 20 yds.
I patterned the .05 choke up there, and you would think I was shooting a pigeon gun.
