I use .410s a lot for doves and prefer tight chokes. A mistake often made by uninformed people is that they equate a small bore with small patterns, and go to more open chokes to, in their mind, "compensate". They should be doing the opposite. Density in a pattern is what kills, not overall pattern size. Use tight chokes and learn to shoot the gun well enough to put that small pattern on the bird, and you'll see success with the little guns.


May God bless America and those who defend her.
