busdennis Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 (edited) just been given the chance to go goose shooting in the morning (never been before). I know my old 390 auto and chokes are steel proofed (stamped sp) and I know the choke pattern is different from lead to steel.(understand how chokes work with lead) but never shot steel. we will be using 36grm 1shot so which choke should I use? ( don't want to look like a complete numpty in the morning) thanks dennis ps tiltle should read 1 shot steel Edited September 30, 2015 by busdennis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerCat Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 The 390 is most likely not stamped. Mine isn't. The chokes are however. 1 shot is in the hp catagory so technically you shouldn't fire them from the 390. That said I'd suggest 1/4 choke should be fine as that was what I was advised by a gunsmith and it's been fine so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
