Well since I "assume" you just called me a "nimrod" I will assume you're calling me an idiot as well !
Although I wasn't using a Poly in this instance .And for the life of me I reread everything I posted and I NEVER asked an opinion on a Poly Choke !

Craig, your name was not mentioned in the quoted post or any other that I have posted until this one, so your assumptions are incorrect. I used the word "nimrod" (hunter) not "dim wit" (idiot).
In your previous posts you voiced some concern of shooting a slug thru your Cutts. In my first response I was merely saying that your concerns were not unfounded. I then went on to say that I had also seen Poly Chokes damaged by shooting slugs. If my attempts to add some personal observations made over many years of experience offended you or Bill, then I humbly appolgize.
I will politely exit this conversation now.

Shot two rounds of skeet yesterday with my old Remington 48 16 gauge with the Cutts !

Had some old Remington and Winchester high brass 1 1/8 ounce factory loads of #5's I wanted to use up so I had the hulls . That old 48 takes the thump outta those high brass shells !

And I gotta say #5's roll up clay targets , well all except the two I missed !

Shot a round with my LC Smith Quality 2 10 gauge also !
I got 24 outta 25 with that one and didn't miss , the one that wasn't hit can be attributed to a bad shell !

My CH Bernard Steel two barrel set has a set of 32" barrels that were ordered "to shoot buckshot" without any other notation. It is my reunited "Charleston Gun" that spent its early life on a large plantation, supposedly shooting deer with buckshot with the 32" barrels in place. The bores are a shiny .730 and the chokes are a fairly short 2 1/2" to 2 3/4" length, one .028 and the other .030. There you go, a factory bored Parker buckshot gun, measured out at about improved modified. The second set of barrels, 28" Bernard Steel, was ordered cylinder and cylinder, .730 from front to back, a true South Carolina quail gun.
