Wanted - Beretta external ported chokes

They claim to throw better patterns due to the more gradual choke constriction, a more even pattern, fewer "flyers" etc.

 

All of this is very difficult to prove, and a hell of a lot depends on what cartridge you use.

 

I use ported extended Rhino's, which I know throw a very tight pattern compared to the standard "short" mobilchoke supplied with my old 682.

 

Also, the porting helps to reduce recoil, but they are a sod to keep clean, and a lot of scorers complain because they get zapped in the face by the side blast, so don't use them if you want to win frends..!!

 

Don't forget, ported chokes are also banned under CPSA rules for use in registered trap shoots, I don't shoot trap, so it doesn't affect me.

Imp Cylinder (1/4) Rhino is my favourite choke for Sporting Clays, I rarely use anything tighter, except on longish going away stuff.

 

Be wary of test patterning using different choke / cartridge combination, I used to spend hours at it, it can blow your mind and you don't learn much from it, and don't forget, you're only seeing the shot pattern in one dimension on the plate, so all of those "holes" that are worryingly visible don't really exist when a moving clay passes through the pattern.

Pin,

 

You are welcome to try and borrow any of my many chokes - I have the Beretta extendeds (muchos deniro), the optima extendeds, some Teague ported (1/4 and 3/8) ordered from Essex Gun today and with any luck I will have Sam's Rhino chokes by Friday. You are welcome to have a play - indeed, I would be interested to see if they make the blindest bit of difference - and of course I will do you a lubby jubby deal on my cast offs :good:

 

Many thanks to Sam - splendid chap - obviously he made the right choice and didn't succombe to your offer of homo erotic Pin polaroids to swing the deal.

 

Back of the queue buster - you snooze you lose etc.
