It has been my experience that the actual constrictions in the Repro chokes, in spite of how they’re stamped, are kind of all over the map.

I think that buying one to actually shoot at specific game or clay targets, actually measuring the choke constriction and patterning Repros is a better way to get what you want.

Dean, my 28 Repro, although choke M/IM I believe, mic'd tighter than that and was close to F/F and patterned as such. Also it was a 70/30 shooter maybe closer to 80/20 and being a single trigger it doubled frequently after several attempted fixes and trigger jobs. I finally moved it on. I seriously couldn't hit anything with it and part of that was I was flinching from the persistent doubling.
