 I was just toying around with flush mounted chokes yesterday. A factory full in Remington 870 supermag turkey/waterfowl and Carlson's extra full .710 in an 835. Shot Federal premium 3" #5 and 3rd. degree in the 870 with good results. The 3rd degree shot a little tighter pattern.
With the 835 and Carlson's choke I shot Federal premium 3" #5 and Winchester XX magnum 3" #6. I have gotten better results shooting the Flight Control wad through full chokes.
At 30 yards the XX #6 is like throwing a net out there.

try some of the Federal flight control shells through the full choke, you just might be surprised
it's not the harvest,it's the chase

Try longbeards I tried a few 3in number sixs at 20 and 40 and was surprised at the pattern is was more even then with my turkey choke
To give anything less then your best is to sacrifice the gift

I was able to get 3 boxes of 3rd Degree on sale.  Have not shot them yet, but will post up results when I do.
