After debating on which 20 gauge to go with I ended up ordering the franchi affinity 3 pistol grip 20 gauge. Question is now what choke? I see a lot on the sumtoy .562 the Indian creek .562 but also the .555 as well for a hot core. I'll be running apex 9s as well. Amy help would be appreciated cause this will be my first 20 gauge

Depends on what you're looking for. I tried a TruLock .585 ported in mine with Apex 9's and it was still crazy tight. My buddy currently runs the same setup.
I ended up getting a Franchi factory extended .600 and hunted that until I sold the gun. I like a little more forgiveness at 20 and still lethal at 40. The .600 ended up being perfect for me.

My franchi did well with a nonported Carlson's .575. Tight enough to reach out some, but still forgiving when they were in your lap. Also priced right!

I used the choke that came with my Elite 3 - Rhino 565 and it's awesome .... Right now I'm shooting Long Beards number 6 because i have some many of these shells and the first time I took it out last year i killed a gobbler with the gun... BEST shotgun I've ever used or carried hunting ... and believe me I've got several turkey guns...
