Even box birds require some thought about chokes. In my debilitated condition and advanced age, I find that my favorite box bird gun has turned into a rifle for someone of my ability. I can't hit the first shot with a rifle and I can't hit the first shot with my old PHE trap. I will either start shooting spreaders in my right barrel or change guns. I never seem to slide much past the thirty yard line. At one shoot, I had a bad first five birds with my PHE, so I shot the last ten with one of my Evans game guns bored IC and MOD, about .010 and .025. I ran nine out of the last ten with a bird gun shooting target loads.
