Title: Which PureGold choke construction?
Post by: Coop1082 on February 26, 2017, 03:00:44 PM
Have a 26" Browning BPS Inv+. Which PureGold choke construction would you recommend for this gun shooting 3.5  2oz Win Longbeards in #5s. General consensus on here seems to be .670 but the majority of testing I see is people using HTL in #7s.

 First :welcomeOG:  I shoot a PG choke in my 835 and Love the results I get.  I do shoot the Hevi 7's as you stated.  According to the PG website https://puregoldchokes.com/cgi-bin/commerce.cgi?search=action&category=INVH, you only have 2 options .660 and .670 for your BPS.  Since the LB's shoot such a tight pattern and you are planning on shooting the 2 oz #5's, I would go with the .670.  I believe the .660 will be too tight for the LB's.  Most of your choke manufacturers have done extensive testing of their products with multiple guns and shells so I would contact them and ask for their opinion.  They have their E-mail and phone number on the website.

I shoot the pure gold with the 670 and a SX3 with a 26 in barrel and LB #5 check out the pattern on the 3 1/2 inch shots.
