modified or cylinder - get both and try them out
Full choke for all buck shot.
You will have to experiment to find out.
Firing buckshot through a modified choke in a 12-gauge Stoeger Condor Competition is generally not recommended. Modified chokes are designed for use with lead shot and can constrict the shot pattern too much for larger pellets like buckshot, potentially causing damage to the choke or affecting performance. It's advisable to use a cylinder or improved cylinder choke for buckshot to ensure safety and optimal performance. Always consult the manufacturer's guidelines for specific recommendations regarding choke usage.
Would not recommend using a full choke or even a 20 gauge, 12s are much better
improved cylinder
50m or so
The Short answer is yes. Even in a 410 gauge shotgun with a full choke. Remember that a "410" is 41 caliber or .41 inches in diameter. oo buckshot is only about .32 inches in diameter. The same is true for shooting slugs in a shotgun. There is no safety issue involved. You will notice that there is no warning on the packaging of the ammunition. In our litigious times you can be sure that if there was a problem there would be a warning printed on the box.
It all depends no what you are shooting. You can find many websites that discuss chokes and the applications of which is best for what type of shooting you are doing.
Yes
A 20 gauge modified refers to a type of shotgun gauge and choke. The "20 gauge" indicates the size of the shotgun, which is smaller than a 12 gauge and commonly used for hunting and sport shooting. The term "modified" refers to the choke configuration, which provides a moderate constriction of the shotgun's barrel, allowing for a balance between spread and distance of the shot, making it suitable for various shooting scenarios, such as upland bird hunting.
Depends on the BA, distance, type of buckshot, load velocity.
Yes.
