Choke question

I now have 3 chokes for my 11-87, to compare.  Two Jellyheads .660 and .665 and the Rem. H.D. choke which I beieve is .672?

I'm probably going to decide on the Hevi's 6 or 7's. But my question is, is there a point tight chokes become dangerous with bigger shot?

As I have some older Winchester #4's, I realize a Jellyhead .660 is probably too tight for a good pattern with 4's, but if I was to shoot a #4 shell through this .660, is their a problem? This is just an example don't plan on using the 4's, but at what point constriction would bigger shot become dangerous/ or not? just curious? Thanks

you can compress lead more than you can hevi shot so the lead 4's in the .660 wont harm a thing, i have never shot hevi shot 4's but most choke tubes claim that 4's can be shot thru their chokes without problem

i'm betting that the .660 and those 7's will be a match made in heaven

The 660 stuff will work good with about anything.  They give a good even pattern.  Now if you want to wake it up drop it in size some.
