Karl,

If you're hunting over pointing dogs and willing to pick you shots, it will be ok. However, this time of the year, the birds can get pretty wild so you may want a backup gun.

I should have mentioned I will be taking my Fox AE 16 too but I would like to hunt with the VH 20 also. I don't normally shoot a gun with this configuration so I'm just curious as to what range the right barrel would still be effective at.

I remember Reggie saying in a post a while back that he had a 20 with factory cyl & mod and he really liked it so hopefully others that have experience shooting these factory chokes will chime in.

Thanks

I have found parkers with little choke will patteren what you would think they sould and with tighter choke they pattered tighter than what they should. Every cly choked parker i have had had .003 to.004 of choke and did shoot 40 to 45%. This is what i have seen with all test shots i do at a 30 inch circle at 40 yds.
Also found the bigger shot (6s and up) shoot tighter
