What is each shotgun choke used for?
Shotgun chokes, whether they be screw-in choke tubes or fixed-chokes (permanent part of the barrel) are used to control the diameter and density of the pellet pattern at a specific distance. Example: An improved cylinder (IC) choke would produce a larger diameter (more open) pattern at around 30 yards. This style of choke is used for close shooting at upland game birds over a pointing dog. A full choke (F) has a tighter constriction so the pattern would be smaller in diameter with more pellets so it would be a better choice for longer distances if hunting ducks or geese. It's always a good idea to "pattern" a shotgun barrel by shooting at a large sheet of paper at various distances to actually see how the barrel's choke and your chosen shotgun shell load react to one another. This way you can actually measure the results of your chosen combination.
What are the advantages of a vented shotgun barrel?
The reasonable assumption is that you are referring to something such as the 'Vang Comp' system. The primary purpose of venting the barrel in any firearm be it a rifle, shotgun, or a pistol is to reduce the impulse of recoil directed into the body of the shooter. Venting a barrel achieves this by redirecting the propellant gases so that a portion of said gas is vented off-axis relative to the barrel.
Not only does reducing this recoil impulse make extended shooting easier by inducing less fatigue on the handler, it can improve accuracy by creating a more stable launch platform for the projectiles being sent on their way with each shot.

Whats the most shells a shotgun will hold?
Well, different types of shotguns can hold varying amounts of rounds or shells. For example a Side by Side, or an Over & Under barreled shotguns can hold two rounds. The "typical" or "average" shotgun can hold 6-8 rounds without a plug. For example the Remington 870 or the newer model the 887. A plug is used to limit the amount of rounds in order to shoot types of game, like waterfowl, in which hunters are only allowed 3 rounds loaded at one time (on certain lands). Some home defense models of shotguns hold 12-15 rounds, depending on the model of course. A popular high capacity model is the Saiga shotgun, holding 10-20 rounds depending on the magazine, having both semi-auto and full auto variants.
