Mike, at .030 they list a LF, not Full. Why would all the others go by .005, but Full has to jump by .010 ? I have a chart in our shotgun room at my club that shows only a .005 jump from IM to Full but don't know where it came from. It's a older chart and doesn't list LF. I don't remember seeing the term LF till all these turkey chokes tubes came out. Back in the day before choke tubes there were chokes at .040 and more but believe they were just call full or extra full. Now with tubes we have LF, Full, Extra Full, and Turkey. I just shoot the old SxS's and have different ones with different chokes. One of these days I'm gonna bring 10 of them out to the club and put one at each station on SC's. Then I can tell the guys how I need different chokes and look here - the right gun is at the right station.

Paul,

What is the jump from IC to MOD?

The variation in the charts just hammers home the point that the best way to discuss choke is with measurements, not nicknames.

Remember..."directions are just one man's opinion."
