I was into hunting/shooting as a kid, and now in my thirties I have been getting back into it. I went trap shooting yesterday, and the gun club I went to had a lot of great, helpful members. I had a great time, and hit 12/25 my first time even firing my new shotgun. So I went to my local Dick's field and stream to get a choke tube for trap. The level of gatekeeping and douchebaggery I got trying to get advice at Dick's, they truly live up to their name. So, I'm just saying I appreciate the video! The guys at the club were super helpful, but I have a lot to learn with competition shooting. One simple question got guffaws and elitist attitude, I want to shoot, support 2nd amendment rights, maybe get back into hunting. You'd think I was at a fancy jewelry/clothing boutique with how elitist this boomer was acting (nothing against boomers, just for age reference). So thank you so much for this video! You taught me what the big box Dick's-head wouldn't.
Growing up the shotguns ive ever used never had choke tubes. I just bought my first shotgun and it had 3 tubes but i didn't know which ones to use for what purposes. You have helped explain better than anyone.
I'm not new to shooting but I've just picked up my benelli m4 and I've never owned a shot gun where I can add a choke. Plus I don't hunt. So this brief video sure did bring a lot of clarity to my questions. Thanks for the well informed video.
Great video. I tend to use the extended choke tubes and I don't know why the manufacturer doesn't include them. I know, cost, but I am going to say that many of us end up spending extra for the extended chokes and don't ever use the standard chokes.
Frankly not only do manufacturers not include them for cost reasons but because you really just don’t need them to have a functional gun. Although I’m with you and I buy extended tubes whenever I can for my shotguns. You get a hair more velocity out of your ammo and more consistent patterns due to the smother transition for the given constriction of the choke vs a factory tube.
My go to is Carlson modified trap chokes. Pheasant chukar geese ducks. Steel bismuth and lead. Sometimes I'm or Lm. But mostly mod. Finally some body that knows lol. Good video
although my current 12g isn't threaded for a choke tube ,there was a lot of useful info in this video should my next gun come prepped for one. appreciate your guidance.
Since this video seems to be aimed at beginning shooters, i highly doubt they’ll cover what powders should be used, however shotsize would be a good topic to cover.
@@gouldshooting At least the relationship of how powder affects power, pattern, etc. If reload is option for conversation, then wad too of course. But shot size, purpose. I'm guessing with Reeds as a sponsor their could be oppty to introduce reloading as hobby and add these topics. Btw, this is John Moore, Nathan's dad. Proud of you guys. Say hi to your dad for me. Then how steel and lead fly differently
Does the Carlson;s Extended improved Modified Choke really Help for Distance Shooting Clay Targets in my Winchester SX4 versus using the Factory Modified Choke? Nobody can give me a straight answer??
Recently inherited my first shotgun from my uncle, this was extremely helpful, thank you! Question. How does Buckshot differ from something like what you shot in this video in terms of spread. With fewer and larger projectiles, I would think it tends to have less of a spread?
Spread pattern wound be roughly the same, although buckshot has larger pellets but much fewer of them. Buckshot would be used for hunting game like whitetail deer, etc.
I ordered myself a carlsons full choke for my mossberg 500,,,, my factory accu choke “full” was stuck big time, so i decided it was coming out no matter what, i had to use a bolt extractor to get it out and it was so tight all the way out,, Im pretty sure the choke tube expanded cause the other factory chokes go in nice and perfect except for the “full” i had it on for 3 years without ever taking it off.. ive used steel BB, 1s, 2,….
I had a full in my Belgium A5 an was shooting #4 lead shot squirrel hunting an didn't realize that it blew a chunk out of my choke where the threads start almost couldn't get it out
Great info! Opinions on other choke sizes like skeet, light modified, and improved modified that fill in the gaps between cylinder, improved cylinder, modified and full? I'm a beginner and looking at getting two extended choke tubes for my O/U to learn clay target shooting. From research i've done seems like skeet or IC for top and Modified for bottom barrel are where to begin.
Great informal video Aaron! Definitely learned more than i thought i had to learn about chokes,, I've always had better luck with full choke duck hunting (basically all I do), more BBs hitting the bird knocking it down a whole lot easier, I also seem to be one of those that takes too far of shots so thats where full helps haha, and seem to be more accurate with a full choke trap shooting, but everyone has their own preferences. Love the Carlson's tubes and your videos, keep it up!!
Im looking at getting an extended choke for my new SX4 12 gauge mainly for Grouse hunting. I usually drive my side by side on old logging roads where alot of the time they are 20-40 yards away. Other times they are 2 yards away lol Which choke would you recommend for all purpose grouse hunting in those conditions? Judging by your video, the full patterns well for close quarter headshots. Thanks!
You certainly can use the chokes provided with your gun. Extended chokes tend to pattern better and are easier to change. Put that with more options of different constrictions and you have more options for shooting. Aaron
Go put the ones you have on paper with the ammo you shoot. Chances are they’ll work just fine. I myself prefer Patternmaster chokes when it comes to my hunting and Briley or Carlson’s extended chokes when it comes to target shooting. You’ll usually see more consistent evenly spread patterns with extended tubes. I have a browning maxus which is very similar to an SX4 and love the Patternmaster code black duck choke for pretty much all my shotgun hunting, besides turkey.
@@chevyon37s Got an SXP defense, with field barrel. As cost isn't a big sticking point, I'd prefer something that does make a difference instead of make me feel good.
Gotta run those Patternmaster chokes! Great chokes that shorten your shot string that really help when hunting flying game. Plus they have awesome customer service to boot. I have many different chokes including Carlson’s, Briley, Patternmaster, and a few others along with all the factory chokes my guns came with and I always turn back to Patternmaster tubes for hunting.
I feel bad for your son, shooting trap on a regular basis with one of those 555’s. Those are hunting guns that are light weight to be carried in the field all day and really beat up a shooter because they just don’t have the mass to mitigate recoil like a heavier target shooting oriented over/under gun does.
@@chevyon37s Shove off Drew, you don't know their situation, and a kid enjoying trap shooting is better than many other kids who play games on their phone all day.
@@austinbeachy3873 I’m not dogging the kid for shooting trap, in fact I think it’s great. And I used to shoot trap in high school myself. I’m just saying he’s got the wrong tool for the job, and is unnecessarily dealing with recoil he shouldn’t have to be. He could be having even more fun and probably better scores with a gun better suited for trap/ clays use than one of these 555’s. If you had read past my first sentence in my first comment you’d understand that. But if you wish, keep up with your “shove off” attitude and keep learning the hard way rather than listening to people who have been around the block and can impart some knowledge from their experience.
I would start with Cylinder shoot a group then IC, and maybe a Mod. See which one works best. It’s not recommended to shoot full chokes with slugs. Aaron
Start out with a cylinder tube until you’re hitting 75%+ Then step up Skeet, Improved, until you’re hitting 75-80% with a Light Modified. Stick with LM unless you have a really long bird use Mod or Impv Mod as a one off if you’d like.
It's hard to find choke tubes when you don't know what you need. This helps greatly, thank you. I have a Maverick 88 with one choke tube (no idea what it is though) are these choke tubes usable in a maverick?
Go to Patternmaster ‘s website and they have a choke tube Cross over list. very extensive in the models they cover, likely your gun has the same choke tube threads as a big name gun manufacture.
A gun threaded for choke tubes must have one installed to shoot. Otherwise you risk big time damage to the barrel. Not so much on modern shotguns, but often the barrel metal is very thin around the choke tube areas. So that’s too thin to remain true without a choke installed, could bulge the barrel, split the end open like a trumpet, or just damage the threads for the choke and fill them with plastic from wads.
I just bought the Carlson blackcloud chokes for my new stoger. My question is will it with a .695 restriction preform the same as the same as the sporting clay choke with the same restriction or no?
I don’t know the exact answer to that. If you intend to shoot the same loads it will probably be similar but because different loads have different wads, etc, the only way to know is test it out. Aaron
Most manufacturers do not recommend using no choke as damage to the threading could occur. It’s also not recommended to shoot slugs through full chokes because of the small diameter of the choke. Try C, IC, or possibly a M. See which one shoots best. My first shotgun was a BPS and it shot slugs best with an IC. Aaron
I've shot many slugs through an older single-shot which was "F" from factory. As it didn't damage the barrel, it's not a good idea. It's my guess that the soft lead slugs were swagging down slightly while passing through that "F" constriction. I'm not as dumb as I used to be. hahaha! And it's a good thing I didn't try some big ol' Brenekke hard-cast slugs.
I recently purchased the winchester SX4 in 12 gauge. When I bought the Carlsons Cremator choke tubes that say "fits most Winchester shotguns" and it doesn't fit. I also purchased the White wing dove choke and it doesn't fit. Can anyone let me know what I am doing wrong? Do I need to be buying A browning choke?
WOULD THE ONLY WAY TO BE ABLE TO SHOOT BUCKSHOT SAFLEY WITH A FULL CHOKE IS IF YOUR USING LEAD? ID ASSUME IF YOU TRY CHOKE STEEL BUCKSHOT ON FULL CHOKE YOU COULD DAMAGE YOUR GUN?
@@gouldshooting awesome okay! Thank you Aaron! Love y’all’s content !!! You all have inspired me to go out and try some trick shots and just shoot clays in general!
Folks REMEMBER to grease the threads of your choke , use a quality grease that will Not Dry out ... Otherwise you may get a stuck tube which of course will cost you Money .. Check yours today, if you can remove it , lubricate it and re install. FYI.

It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith." Romans 3:23-27.
This video discusses chokes and patterning correctly. What it didn't do (thank goodness) is try to say that the "holes" in the pattern would be misses. It is the shot cloud (3 dimensions) that allows an improved cylinder to break every clay shot at with the proper lead at 40 yards. If the shot all came out and arrived at the point of impacting the clay at the exact instant (impossible, but what a two dimensional "pattern" shows), you'd rarely break even a single clay at 40 yards.
so im curious if i want to shoot double ot buck or i want to shoot slugs should i use a full choke or no choke so i dont screw up my barrel im not trying to sound stupid but i am curious. email me bmtorfi@gmail.com
Never shoot without a choke. But running the most “open” choke like cylinder or improved cylinder that most shotguns come with is best for slugs and buck shot. But with the buckshot you could put in a tighter choke if you wish. Get out and pattern it and see what it does with a given choke constriction.
I just need to know which choke I can shoot a lead slug out of?....I'm guessing only full cylinder, but idk...And if I have a cylinder on, can I still shoot clay target ammo?
cylinder or improved cylinder would more than likely give the best accuracy. i have shot slugs through turkey chokes and they were still accurate lol.... not recommended though.
Aaron thank you. I am definitely a novice shotgun shooter and your presentation and explanations were digestible and cool.
Choke selection isn't rocket science but it can be confusing at first. Hope this helps you gain understanding and break more clays. Aaron
I just bought my new x full buck kicker love it
Great examples. If you get a chance would love to see another video like this but with buckshot.

Okay that helps a lot thanks 😊
Since a slug is a single projectile, and the principles of a choke tube don’t apply you’ll want to use the most open choke you have.
There's a reason defensive barrels (16 to 18") are cylinder-bore with no taper.
Cheers

Great video Aaron, you guys always deliver and your vids are so informative. I got to say though coming from the UK.......BB's.....really? They're those 6 mm plastic balls fired through a toy gun. Pellets all day long. Any way mate, keep 'em coming.
ATB from the UK.
BB guns here in the US shoot steel balls, so referring to the shot as BB’s is not inaccurate.
I think 10% is high. I don't know anyone that patterns their shotgun.
LOL, I’d agree. Although I know a lot of turkey hunters pattern as well as waterfowlers. At least the guys I hunt with do.
"15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
15:2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
15:3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
15:4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:" 1 Corinthians 15:1-4.
"1:5 To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
1:7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
1:9 As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed." Galatians 1:5-9.
"2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast." Ephesians 2:8-9.
"3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
3:24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
3:26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
3:27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith." Romans 3:23-27.
This video discusses chokes and patterning correctly. What it didn't do (thank goodness) is try to say that the "holes" in the pattern would be misses. It is the shot cloud (3 dimensions) that allows an improved cylinder to break every clay shot at with the proper lead at 40 yards. If the shot all came out and arrived at the point of impacting the clay at the exact instant (impossible, but what a two dimensional "pattern" shows), you'd rarely break even a single clay at 40 yards.
He looks and Sounds like Ken Block the car guy
🇪🇨🇪🇨👍
so im curious if i want to shoot double ot buck or i want to shoot slugs should i use a full choke or no choke so i dont screw up my barrel im not trying to sound stupid but i am curious. email me bmtorfi@gmail.com
Never shoot without a choke. But running the most “open” choke like cylinder or improved cylinder that most shotguns come with is best for slugs and buck shot. But with the buckshot you could put in a tighter choke if you wish. Get out and pattern it and see what it does with a given choke constriction.
My ex was heavily into chokes. She always told me: "Choke me, daddy." Why did she call me daddy, I'll never know.
Lmao
Everyone just really likes to shoot. Lol like me. Wth
Wtf will no one explain if u only have notches, which is mod. Full etc. 1 notch shoots how? 5 how
I just need to know which choke I can shoot a lead slug out of?....I'm guessing only full cylinder, but idk...And if I have a cylinder on, can I still shoot clay target ammo?
cylinder or improved cylinder would more than likely give the best accuracy. i have shot slugs through turkey chokes and they were still accurate lol.... not recommended though.
