I've shot all the different models and they are good chokes. I've mainly shot 3" Hevi-13 "Bronze" shells with #6 shot so far. Since that was really what these chokes were designed to shoot, that seemed like a good place to start.

Mike Sorensen shot a Hevi-13 Turkey Choke in the hunter class, at the world championship still target shoot last year and was in the final four. We all won a squad (you have to win 2 squads to win) and none of the scores were more than a few pellets apart. It held its own against everything else shot there.

It's a good choke tube, well made, from good materials and priced fairly, in my experience.

Thanks,
Clark
