Imperfection Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 Just stick the improved cylinder in-its a good all rounder. :( Smear a little gun grease on the tube & thread when you screw it in and make sure its tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickmep Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 in order from most open (cylinder) cylinder, skeet, improved cylinder (1/4), modified (1/2), improved modified (3/4), full. this is for most guns, some such as beretta using beretta chokes the skeet is more open than cylinder. most gun manufacturers and briley beretta chokes and usa beretta chokes the skeet is half way between cylinder and quarter. best all round is quarter or improved cylinder, going to half it birds are a bit further away. most people say stick quarter in and forget about changing, personally i'm always changing.
