Sorry I'm not sure what you mean, it's the same as any other multi choke semi auto, choose the choke you want and away you go, I don't think I've changed the choke in it since I bought it and I've sho0t away merrily with it. I'll tell you what though, I wouldn't be shooting rabbits and crows with the 3 1/2 inch magnums, not at a pound a bang I won't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munst Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Isn't it generally a bad idea to fire that amount of steel shot through tight chokes? Might be wrong but people have warned me off heavy steel shot through the tighter chokes on my AL391 3inch. Like I say its just what I've been told so might not be accurate but I always use 3/4 or full so I stay clear of steel shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fullbore Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Its copper jacketed steel shot in a polymer thingy and I've never heard that about tight chokes, and anyway the extrema is a chrome lined barrel. The only thing I have heard could be problematical is slug through tight chokes, but some of the guys at the club dont see this a s a problem either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy. Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 I keep a couple of 36grm SG cartridges in my pocket. There's 9 big lumps of lead in those. If you're interested they're aptly called 'Buffalo Cartridges' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry d Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 I keep a couple of 36grm SG cartridges in my pocket. There's 9 big lumps of lead in those. If you're interested they're aptly called 'Buffalo Cartridges' SG`s at over 30 yds = no pattern, you are better off with 3`s upwards, preferably 1`s or BB`s. As for "Buffalo" cartridges I have a case of 250 in both No.5 & 4`s in 36gm and neither those nor the SG`s would I use for Buffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Master Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 I have some 36g Buffalo's in BB. They get used for fox. FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
