grahamch Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 just use the standard 1/2 choke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m greeny Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Briley, kicks, terror, carlsons, and wad wizard to name a few there's so many to choose from. In my sx3 I get great patterns with kicks but in my o/u I use brileys but what is most important with whichever you choose is to pattern it and find out what works best with the shells you intend to use.

motty Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 For a good quality, value for money choke, you will do far worse than buying an extended Briley, in full choke flavour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancer425 Posted June 30, 2020 Report Share Posted June 30, 2020 (edited) The briley chokes are a good option, and work great. another option and available through BROWNELLS UK . Carlsens waterfowl choles. they do a two choke set and a 3 choke set, these are a good choke in INV plus. Another option is of course the Kicks high flyer. these work well in inv plus and many like them, i am not a fan of ported chokes myself, but must admit the kicks do work well. Other options from the states can be involved in importing. But Terrors Indian creek Jebs etc all very good, but not easy at moment to import, might be easier in the post brexit trade deals once they are worked out. Brownells UK for carlsens . https://www.brownells.co.uk/WATERFOWL-CHOKE-TUBE-SET-Waterfowl-2-Pk-Beretta-Benelli-Mobil-12g-Mid-Long-Range-CARLSONS-12-Gauge-Mobilchoke-Long-Range-Mid-Range-155000244 winglocked for kicks high flyer. https://www.wingslocked.co.uk/ If you can get one shipped herevia friend etc. Jebs. https://www.jebschokes.com/choke-tubes/ Indian creek. https://indiancreekss.com/ Muller. "UFO" https://mullerchokes.com/pages/home Possible get mullers from JUST CHOKING.UK. Terror chokes Hard to get here currently, rumours out of production etc. "COULD BE ". http://wadwizard.com/waterfowlhunters.htm There are terror choke copies doing the rounds , from northumberland North yorkshire and Notinghamshire, and no doubt other places.

figgy Posted July 10, 2020 Report Share Posted July 10, 2020 I've had a few Wildfowling chokes in different guns and now use Briley extended in xfull and half depending on what carts and quarry I'm shooting. Recommended by Mitty, they work very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd90 Posted July 11, 2020 Report Share Posted July 11, 2020 What’s wrong with the chokes that come with the gun? Doesn’t the new Maxus come with 5 chokes and an additional 2” 1/2 choke specifically for steel shot? 🤷♂️ I just purchased a brand new Maxus the other day on the phone and need to go pick it up, hopefully tomorrow.

A lot of wildfowlers like super tight extended chokes that may not come with their gun. You are unlikely to get an XXF choke with any gun as standard. For me, half choke just isn't tight enough for many wildfowling situations that I encounter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting to know... what cart and choke combo do you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted July 13, 2020 Report Share Posted July 13, 2020 Lloyd90, Anything other than decoying or hide shooting over splashes, half choke might not give good enough patterns to shoot further out. All depends on your chosen cart, powder charge, speed, shot size and shot weight. When you get your Maxus, pattern your chokes at distances you will likely shoot with your choice of carts. See if the standard chokes give you what you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you have walked out for a couple of miles onto the marsh, you want your cartridge and choke combination to work for you. You may get few chances, and if that mallard or pinkfoot comes on the very edge of range, you need the best/tightest patterns possible. In my experience, a half choke generally won't give me that. Even when I am expecting close shots, I will still opt for the tightest chokes, so I cover all bases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RojUK264 Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 Wow !!! Some serious gezzers on here ! I hesitate to even write, except to say, ( in my defence.... I'm new on ere !!! And relatively new to shotguns 😁) Got a new maxus myself about 9.month ago, love it, though I've only put a few boxes through it so far, mainly at clays and the crow or two, and grey tree rats. I was looking on here for some thoughts on patterning. I've done a few at 20 30 yds with 1/2 and 3/4 choke, using cheddite 7 1/2 28s and 6s 32gram. Just to see whats going on. Im using Fibre wads. Even at 20 and 30 yds the results are slightly gappy to my mind, i.e. big enough for clay to escape in places now n then. Your thoughts and considerable knowledge would be appreciated.
