One of my Cutts guns is a Parker, problem free since it was made.

My Kerner double thats full and fuller shot the right barrel okay with buck but the left barrel was shyte . With the slugs the Win and Fed printed fairly decent right/left groups at 25 yards and again the Rem not so great . And as to the Cutts , no problem what so ever ! My old shooting buddy that passed a few months ago had Model 12's in each gauge as well as a couple Model 42's all Cutts Compensated . Had a couple Browning A-5's and Remington 870's with Cutts as well . He liked Polychokes as well although I'm not sure why . Matter of fact I sold him the Model 12 Deluxe Field I had with the Poly on the end .

The last gun I will own will be an 1100 with a vent rib and a ventilated poly choke.

I certainly wasn't criticizing the Cutts style chokes, I think they are cool in a nostalgic way. I was just answering a question that was asked, based on my personal observation. I should clarify that I was refering to the old large diameter compensators that required the shot column and wad to jump a relatively long open gap between the muzzle and the choke tube. Poly Choke solved that problem by putting their compensator after the choke mechanism. And yes, Poly's can be damaged also, though usually from incorrect use by the shooter. The "fingers" of these collet style chokes can get bent when cleaning or when not cleaned often enough. And I will mention again, nimrods shooting slugs through them when they're screwed down to extra full. I have seen many with missing "fingers", and once one is gone your shot pattern or accuracy with a slug is gone also. |

Although I wasn't using a Poly in this instance .And for the life of me I reread everything I posted and I NEVER asked an opinion on a Poly Choke !

In your previous posts you voiced some concern of shooting a slug thru your Cutts. In my first response I was merely saying that your concerns were not unfounded. I then went on to say that I had also seen Poly Chokes damaged by shooting slugs. If my attempts to add some personal observations made over many years of experience offended you or Bill, then I humbly appolgize. I will politely exit this conversation now. |

Shot two rounds of skeet yesterday with my old Remington 48 16 gauge with the Cutts !
Had some old Remington and Winchester high brass 1 1/8 ounce factory loads of #5's I wanted to use up so I had the hulls . That old 48 takes the thump outta those high brass shells ! And I gotta say #5's roll up clay targets , well all except the two I missed ! Shot a round with my LC Smith Quality 2 10 gauge also ! I got 24 outta 25 with that one and didn't miss , the one that wasn't hit can be attributed to a bad shell !
