OK. Its 5 weeks to dove openner. Whats your 12 ga. dove choke of choice? I used a skeet in my 391 last year with good success. But that & a full is all I have since a back bore job was done. Was thinking of a .015. Thanks in advance.

I have owned and used the same gun all my life. A Remington Wingmaster 12ga Mag with a fixed full choke. It is all I use for everything.

I use a Trulock SKT II chock...stumbled upon it, and haven't changed since... It flat out folds birds...close or far! J.J.

I always use Mod - #71/2 in 12 or 20
IC would be useful if they are coming into roost or at a pond, someone said they would use IC once they start flying higher but that doesn't make much sense to me, then maybe I would go to a full choke. But if they get too close they would be mauled

Agree with J PECK...always a kicks Modified, if your missing "close" shots. Practice shooting "close" skeet, because a modified can do everything if your good with it.
