stoeger m3500 choke advice

hello everyone just joined and am pretty new to turkey hunting this spring will be my 3rd season. anyway i picked up a stoeger 3500 in 2011 to use as my waterfowl and turkey gun, last season was my 1st yr using it for turkey. i patterened it in with the factory xft and some remington loads and it was decent and used it for the season then tried to take out the choke at the end of the season for a cleaning and to put it back in order to be ready for early goose season in sept well sure enough it had expanded some and was a bear to get out. so i'm looking to get a decent choke and try to stay on a budget of around $50 if possible, i don't want to ruin my barrel by using the factory xft and have it get stuck worse than last season. i hear really good thing about sumtoys in the 3500 but think thats out of my budget this yr was also looking at hevi's, jellyhead,and trulocks. any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. i did a search for 3500 chokes and not much came up thats why i am specifically asking.

Now 650 to 660 with small shot. Now jump to 665 with the bigger stuff.

I just picked up a M3500 myself, and I got a hevi 13 choke, and it has been awesome! Check out the Truglo SSX too. Also Remember that your gun takes the Beretta/Benelli chokes with the "Mobil" Threads.

Cabelas did have the Hevi Shot chokes on sale. Not sure if they still do or not.
