There's only one way to properly measure the chokes on your Trojan and that is with a bore micrometer. Don't use one of those graduated brass "go - no go" things because they really don't tell you anything. Another thing to do is to pattern it at different yardages and with different loads to determine % of pattern coverage at those yardages.
You are not limited to RST or any other low pressure - low recoil loads. You can use most off-the-shelf loads but you will like the reduced 'felt recoil' of the RST loads a LOT better than the off-the-shelf stuff. The only time I use off-the-shelf loads in my 16 ga. Trojan is when turkey hunting.
