Roy, your post may be the synopsis of published information that "No one is responsible for the invention of choke boring". I will try to compile a list of writers who precede you in correct and incorrect information about this subject. Additions to my list are welcome. First, John Davis (in honor of his wonderful book compiling Kimble's shooting career), Jimmy Robinson, Dick Baldwin, Ed Muderlak, American Field, Sports Afield magazine, Bill Murphy, Sportsmen's Review, Jack O'Connor, et all.
