Hey Folks,
Looking for some help on finding the best choke and shell combo for a 12ga Affinity. Anyone have any experience before i start trying random combos.
Thanks

Nice to hear, do you like the Affinity overall? Any issues? about to make the purchase. Thanks for responding

I have owned a lot of guns that use the berreta benelli mobile chokes. Best place to start is go tight due to I.D. of barrel.These guns are tighter bore than say a remington.  All my mobile choke guns like a .640-.655 with any shell. Best lead chokes are .640-.650. HTL i run .650-.655. I have had great luck with carlson tubes and they are only $25-$30 and made in USA. I shot a .655 jellyhead in one gun and it did great.The little primos tightwad is another that shouldnt be overlooked. Hope this helps.

yup, both my stoegers liked chokes in the 650-655 range the best.
