it does not matter what choke you use KEEP your gun in front of the bird and never look down the barrel.
If it bleeds I can KILL IT

I use an IC for both. I shoot dove better with lead through an IC. With steel, the IC patterns as a modified from my shotgun. I'm considering a specialty choke such as a Patternmaster, Kicks, or get the Carlson's waterfowl choke set.

I'm considering a specialty choke such as a Patternmaster, Kicks, or get the Carlson's waterfowl choke set. I use the Carlson's waterfowl set for everything in my knockaround shotgun. "Close Range" (which is IC) for dove and hunting over decoys on the prairie. If I go to the coast hunting bigger water I'll swap for the M or F, but it probably isn't necessary. I keep a Skeet choke in the over and a light modified in the under on my Browning.

Full for everything. Either it dies or it flies away. No in between.
If I'm not hunting something I must be dead.
