nope, id go with a 70 year old gun mated to a 70 year old bbl, designed by Winchester employees from a bygone era with proven fixed chokes any day.
ok, take care guys. see you in another 2 years if someone calls me back. I found other sites to hang out in.
I notice no addressing of your claim of ruining a barrel by shooting it without a choke tube in place. No matter, I guess you won't read this anyway.
OBTW, if you do drop back in for a read, thanks for your service in Naval Aviation. I enjoyed the pictures on your blog. I was in a VA squadron myself, ATKRON 205 (USNR). So, we do have a little in common.
