widgeon man Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Hi all having tested a fair few chokes and decided upon which I prefer and choose to use after several seasons use, having swapped guns I could no longer source a particularly good choke that 'terror' ised the birds 😉 due to a vast reduction in the U.S range. However I have the opportunity to make some similar chokes here in the U.K for almost all the current modern fowling guns, if I can get a larger order the price per unit will come down considerably due to better production run. These will be made from the highest grade 17-4 steel professionally finished and be made for use with steel shot and capable of handling high velocity loads better than conventional chokes. These would be extended, unported chokes. If you are interested please contact me via pm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motty Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 This sounds good, Brad. I will have to think about what constriction I would like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
widgeon man Posted August 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 These are what we spoke of before Motty, was thinking of a .690 myself as the .675 I used to have was brilliant with 4's to 1's but too tight for bigger shot.

Terry P Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 I always prefer to buy British or at least from a British company. If you can get close to choke prices from abroad I'd be interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogs Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 yes mate would be very interested if they became available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
widgeon man Posted August 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 These chokes will beat US prices anyway inc shipping, but if enough of us want superior patterns with steel then we will get them cheaper.... Because these will be a run and require tooling, a bigger number makes it easier and cheaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farma Geddon Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 690 and 675 in Mobil choke for the DD and the same for the 425 in invector plus. Plus a duck flight with the three Amigos and the pigeon specs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry P Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Will it be just for 12b fella. I have a 10 I just cannot give up. Since I started home loading I never go over #1 so the .675 sounds interesting. Be good to compare it with the kicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
widgeon man Posted August 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Haven't shot a kicks terry to compare. Brileys worked very well, however this internal profile is a different profile and seems far more forgiving across a wide range of loads, I.e both HV and slow loads, factory vs home loads. Â 10 bore are a possibility I haven't looked into...... Yet! As myself and mates all use them. Let's see what we can do with the 12, as should be more of us wanting these, if everyone wants them I will certainly look into it. I do need your threading and constrictions though guys.... I.e Mobil choke .690 or rem pro bore .690.... I personally think the most useable would be a .690 or .680 as .675 was great upto 1's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry P Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Ok fella. Invector plus for sx3 .680 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony G Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 For those of us not clued up on the constrictions,what equates to what Brad ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farma Geddon Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 These chokes are from full to 2xfull. Something g like that. Depends on the boring of your gun. My Zabala is .729 in the bore ,every ten thou under that in the choke area equates to a choke . In other words a choke which measures .719 is a quarter choke in my Zabala , .709 is half ,.699 is 3/4 ,.689 is full. I have a Terror .675 in it now and that shoots everything really well.

widgeon man Posted August 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Hi Tony, these are specially designed constriction which is how it can have such tight constriction. i used a.675 in a benelli which bore was .720, so that was 0.45 of choke, which equates to a tight lead full choke. It patterned my 3.5mm and 4mm steel loads fantastically, however a .690 would be more suited to larger shot I.e BB, BBB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The threads swelled a little when I used fast 4.5mm steel through it. I think a .675 - .690 would suit me well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

widgeon man Posted August 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Thanks for all the interest lads , lot of people getting in touch! if you can update me on gun model you require choke for, those of you who haven't, would be a help. At this stage I just want to know who is seriously interested, so I can work out numbers on a single order. Costings will follow this via pm etc...... Please no time wasters.
