I use an Improved Modified Choke that my coach told me to get 2 years ago and I have been shooting for 5 years now. This is my 5th year. I did HS Trap and now I am in a summer league out of HS. And I love the choke I have after I got it my score improved. Yet one time I didn't notice, but my older brother for some reason used my shotgun to hunt and put a Turkey Choke in it. Luckily it was a practice and my coach asked why I was doing so bad and then looked at my gun and said "Well the problem is you have turkey choke in it".
Interesting ...Have various guns and I,ve noticed certain cartridges break clays `differently`. . A FITASC champion gave me a handful of the cartridges he used (sponsored). .He said " they all will break the clays ..but some break them better than others!!". . .
I had my Mossberg 500 w. 28" barrel, pattern very thin with the modified choke, at least I thought. Swapped out for full choke and suddenly I am breaking targets left, right and centre! Patterning full choke I could immediately see why.
For american-style trap at 16 yards start line...scientifically/ ballistically a modified choke with 1 oz load at 1200 feet per second should give most consistent patterns from most shotguns. Most shotguns that have a bore of 18.4, 18.5, 18.6. Anything bigger than 18.6 it is fairly uncommon.
Good video good information. You have to keep constantly going back to the pattern plate because different temperatures different elevations different weather all are a Factor... even ammunition brands and batch to batch of the same cartridge have changes.
+BAMBI243 What's rubbish about it? Any pro shooter or gunsmith worth their weight in salt will tell you the same thing as this video pointed out. You sound like you're to lazy or arrogant to go out and pattern your gun. A little effort can go a long way in this sport.

My turkey choke stays in full time
Another great set of clay shooting video's Chris, It would be good if they were playing in the wright order.
great videos, some things are so basic to some people but, if your just starting out it a good starting point

Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Not sure what that was about but it wasn’t choosing chokes....
That was good info, but you never got around to talking about choosing chokes.
Exactly, I was wondering the same thing myself. Do you call Briely Chokes and see if they know what the hell he's talking about or what?
OK.
You didn't help me.
I need a starting point.
30-35 yards..
OK.
What chokes is everyone using?
I use improved modified
Weird, I use full. Seems to get me my best results, very consistent.
@@bolshoefeodor6536not weird at all. Full is weird.
Ask ben hushwaite about pattern plates he says theyre rubbish ,im like you i fail to agree on that one
Told me absolutely nothing. Waste of time to watch this video.
what load of rubbish. I have been shooting 40 years nd would not have a lesson with this guy
