I have a C grade 1894 Remington that would be like a C grade Parker. Summer thinks only about 200 were made, and the choke numbers are stamped on the barrel lugs - Full and Full. Because I'll never need Full chokes I took them out to skeet in and skeet out [ SK/LM ]. I think those are the perfect chokes for anything I'll ever hunt or shoot at for clays. It's my gun and I'd never enjoy shooting it with Full and Full. I called the fellow I bought it from about a year after I got it to tell him I won our Skeet Doubles league with it. He said he never could hit anything with it and that's why he sold it. That VH is a hunting gun and back in the day with paper wads tighter chokes were needed, especially if you were duck or goose hunting. If the originally owner was going to hunt birds in close a more open choke gun would have been ordered . If the present owner is going to then why not open them up like the original owner would have ordered ?
