I recommend that if someone has screw-in-chokes, LM/IM and leave them in. Excellent choke combo and it takes all the distractions out of the process.

Before I started shooting the Bullshit game (sporting clays) I was very much into open choke guns for skeet -dove - quail . I will say I liked tight choked guns for trap then and still do . However I feel a heck of a lot more comfortable with maybe to much choke then thinking I don’t have enough . I seem to shoot in a more smooth manner with a tight choked gun at sporting , if the guns open choked I tend to try and shoot to quick and jump at the bird not swing in a smooth more precise manner .
