No, you didn't HAVE to open it up, you CHOSE to.

For my purposes, Stan . . . yes, I HAD to. I have no use for full choke in anything other than maybe the tight barrel of a sxs I'd use for trap or turkeys. And I don't shoot trap all that much, usually 16 yard, where mod works fine. (And I already have a M/F sxs.) And haven't hunted turkeys in quite some time. What sense does one full choke barrel make in a gun used for skeet, sporting clays (recreational variety, nothing particularly long), grouse and woodcock hunting, prairie grouse (mostly early season), and pheasants over some pretty good dogs? Oh yeah . . . and driven birds in Scotland? (Just the "normal" type, not a steady diet of 50 yard + archangels?)

For those that find full choke useful, more power to you. As can be seen from the above, it doesn't make much sense for me.
