Available Benelli choke tubes are Cylinder, Improved Cylinder, Modified, Improved Modified, Full, and Extra Full Turkey.
How many pellets go into a 30" circle at set distances.
These are the different widths needed for ranges. the more notches (range from 1-5 notches) the wider the pattern of BBs
You will have to experiment with different loads from different makers and different chokes. Doubtbul that one choke will be the best at all three ranges.
Chokes for shotguns shrink the bore's diameter to tighten the shot pattern and increase practical range.
A Winchoke is a screw in choking device that screws into the end of a Winchester Shotgun. Commonly called a screw in choke, most manufacturers have a different name for their chokes that they made specifically for their products. Screw in chokes eliminate the need for extra barrels with different chokes built in. The screw in choke allows the shooter to change from open chokes to a full choke depending on how wide they want the shot pattern to spread. Winchester makes the Winchoke, Remington makes the Remchoke, Browning makes the Invector choke and so on.
A good basic article on chokes http://www.ssaa.org.au/stories/shotguns-a-beginners-guide-to-shotgun-chokes.html
With standard chokes, Full Choke is the tightest. However, there are non-standard chokes for SOME shotguns (used by turkey hunters) that are Extra Full Choke.
you do not operate choke chokes have different settings for different shot spread and pattern you can change this if the gun has changable chokes if changable the choke screws off and you screw different choke on Yes you do operate this choke, I own one.! It has markings on side. Its what is called a poly choke You can crank it closed for Full choke or twist it open Hope this helps
A choke, as it relates to firearms, is a narrowing of the end of the shotgun barrel. This narrowing can be greater or smaller. Chokes that are smaller than the bore to a greater degree are called tight chokes. Choke affects the shot pattern. Different chokes act differently with different loads and shot types. Choke tubes are steel tubes with threads on the outside and one end having the same diameter as the bore and the other end being narrower to various degrees. These tubes are screwed into the end of the shotgun barrel to vary the choke. This provides shooters with more flexibility in using their guns for different types of shooting and different loads.
Yes, they describe the various chokes.
There is no "Standard" choke. A5's could be purchased with one of many different chokes, however, the more common chokes on a 28" barrel were Full and Modified
trap shooting is done at ranges of 16 to 27 yards full is the standard choke though improved cylinder will work from the 16to20 and mod from 21 to 27 the downside of more open chokes is less pattern density and the larger patterns hide your mistakes. the upside is if you are a newby the more forgiving pattern will help you get a few targets and build some confidence Try different shots at different yardages with different chokes to find out which one works best and gives you the best patterns at about 10 to 30 yards, knowing the gun is key, don't go by other people every gun is different and so is the shooter
