Title: Anyone experimented with TSS and a flush choke ?
Post by: topnotch on June 28, 2023, 09:44:21 PM
I am wanting to use my CZ Bobwhite 12 gauge this fall, but with  flush mount chokes. Do they ( flush choke tubes for TSS) exists or has anyone shot TSS with the factory full chokes with any success ?

I started my TSS journey with an Encore 12ga and an Indian creek choke tube. It was ridiculously tight. I hunted with it one season then went to a Flush factory Full choke. Nice even pattern out to 40. I hunted this setup several seasons before buying a 20ga barrel.

Try the flush full, you will be happy.

It will absolutely work percent.  I have shot TSS out of my CZ Sharptail 20 gauge with the factory full choke in one Barrel and Modified in the other. Works all the way and farther than I will shoot at a turkey.  Really no need to spend the extra money on chokes unless you want to shoot a super tight pattern.

Have a good one, Bo

Absolutely yes. No special choke required for a good hunting pattern.

Thanks all, that's what I was hoping to hear.
I was thinking if anything the patterns would tighten up using TSS loads, especially Federal with their flightcontrol wadding.
But sometimes I read too much and start down the wrong path.

If you want tight patterns, I would personally avoid those shells. They can be made to pattern well, but generally take a good deal of choke to do so, contrary to company rhetoric.
