Depends if you are using a choke reamer or an adjustable cutter.

I wonder what kind of tooling Lefever used in the 1890's for putting a tapered choke into a barrel. This bore is also very light for a ten, 8 lbs 2 oz with 30" barrels. I think it may have been ordered as an upland gun rather than a fowler and the chokes go with it's weight.
