Title: Got a ? About HW's
Post by: Izzyjoe on March 08, 2015, 10:14:13 AM
I've read on here that the Fed FCW don't pattern very well with ported chokes, doesn't the HWs have them, I bought some #6 hw yesterday, and was wondering if they will work with the tight wad 570, or do I need a non ported choke, I also ran across a Tru glo gobble stopper choke, I may it also. I ordered some #7, and can't wait to try them!

The flight control wad in the 20 gauge shell is softer and more forgiving than the wad in the 12 gauge load.  And the Tightwad choke has been producing some good patterns with the 20 gauge Federal HW 7's.  Don't know about the 6's.

I'm glad to hear that, soon as I can I'll burn them up, and post the results!

I have a tightwad and a gobble stopper choke, the HW 6's and 7's work fine in them
