I'd stick with the rem choke that's a dead bird no matter how you look at it.

Looks good to me with the Rem choke. Send the IC back and buy mors shells.

I like the Rem Choke as well.  Look at the area between 10-20".  Choose which ever has the best coverage in that area too.

Both the Rem Choke and the Hevishot choke look good.  You could hunt with either with confidence.

Count your 20in numbers and see where they come in and how even the pattern is.

While some might be slightly better than others, I would say that bird is hanging over your shoulder with any of those. 

The deciding factor for me would be the evenness of the 10-20 inch circles.  I would also shoot it at about 15-20 yards to see how tight they are.  Since you know what they can do at 40 and they look good I would try to use the one that gives you the more open pattern at 15-20 yards.  Either way at the end of the day you are putting a tag on a bird.

I have to agree with the majority and go with the Rem Choke as well.  :newmascot:

If you are going for less voids in the patterns, I'd go with the jelly head or hevi choke.  They are about as even as it gets.  Can't go wrong with the Rem Choke either.  You are one of the lucky ones... Most of us have to spend loads of money on chokes and shells... Looks like you just need to stock up on shells and you are good to go.  I'd be curious to see what your gun would do with Win Xtended Range shells.

I also have mentioned how well the factory Remington Wingmaster choke shot as compared to other brand name chokes a few times. It is a very good choke and have said to others to save their money and give that choke a fair shake, if it came with their new gun.

Mainly because, 95% of post asking what choke to use with the Remington, never even mention this choke, as it's always some other brand? For some reason, this choke does not get the recoginition it should? Nice patterns

If it's a HD choke I'd stick with the Remington.
