Hie thee downe to the local gunne smith and ask him to vernier caliper the choke end of the barrels. Then decipher the vernier caliper reading and compare it to his chart of choke constrictions and you, at least, have the answer to how much choke is in the gun.
My 'puzzlement' ... John, relates to the 2 sets of choke stampings on the same gun, which by all accounts are poles apart in size and expected performance.
As suggested in my post, the actual bore / choke dimensions are not important ( I find I hit most things that I point the gun at and my money is on the gun being choked the more open Q1 and Q2 ) however, the value I find in this wonderful forum is the revelation of the sometimes 'odd or quirky' tidbits of information relating to the guns we love.
I considered my little 'puzzle' may have provided some interest to someone so inclined.
