Like most of you, I'm fortunate to own several shotguns, including several with choke tubes. I also own a few nice classic SxS's that left the factory with Full and Modified barrels.
Until recently, I had not shot skeet with these guns, thinking the tight chokes were a major handicap. However, recently I used two of them for skeet with surprising results -- my scores stayed the same, 21 to 23. If one concentrates, F&M choke really isn't a huge detriment. Both guns have double triggers, so on stations 1,2,6,& 7, I fire the Full choke first. Perhaps i miss one marginal bird that would have been chipped by a more open choke.
Perhaps the rest of you already know this works, but it was news to me.
