Before the 30” Skeet gun thing really took off there was a retired military shooter from the Oceana or Langley clubs in VA that I used to see often . Anyway he was shooting a Winchester 101 field gun with 30” screw chokes in the 12 gauge event . Many people rolled their eyes at him then , but he shot well enough to be low AA or high A . Now years later after having shot that game a long time if I’ve got my s..t wired right I can go out and break 25 straight with a 30 or 32 inch full choke 10 or 12 and then shoot the next round with a 26” full choked IJ 410 and get 24 or 25 . All that goes to show if you’re minds in the game gauge , barrel length and chokes to a degree are not deal breakers or deal makers .
