What is your favorite duck hunting choke, one that you've noticeably seen a difference on?

I like to run Rem chokes in my Benelli, but you have to send them to Briley to get the threads re-cut!

Its according to what I got in the chamber......I learned teaching shooting sports that it is a lot more to getting good performance out of a shotgun than just buying a choke tube. You have to get out and literally see what kind of pattern each choke tube you own produces with different brands of shells, shot, and shot weight......I learned sometimes even when you have the best choke tubes money can buy if it don't match up well to what's in the chamber it will be no better than any other choke.
Our local shooting range has a pattern test plate and we have used it quiet a bit with several choke tubes and shell brands. I just bought a Benelli Nova waterfowl and I ordered a Hevi shot choke tube set for it. We are shooting #3 12 gauge 3 inch Hevi Metal and we will know what this shotgun is doing at every distance between 20 and 40 yards before opening week and make any required changes if needed........

I'm with Oglesby. I too spend hours upon hours at the range testing chokes. Maybe one day it will help me get a limit...
the thing about baiting is, even a rookie hunter could have a 170 bird season if they bait holes

Patternmaster, long range. Don't shoot pellets smaller than 4's. Or high velocity loads either. If you want to be the best, then shoot a tight choke
