Bill. Randy and Chad summed up my opinions. A few of the pigeon shoots back in the day had a single barrel event along with the main shoot. Many pigeon shooters, myself included, shot a double with IC or LM in the right barrel and as much choke as you could get in the left. Many shot O/U's but the choking was the same. That way you could go from the single barrel ring to the main ring using the same gun. Shot size choices are another thing better left for another discussion.
Randy found out the same thing I did using tight chokes and lighter shot charges. My scores did'nt go down but actually increased. A win/win as far as I'm concerned.
And Chad, you hit the nail on the head. Sometimes a more open choke is preferable but the middle of the pattern is the middle of the pattern.
