Larry, did you happen to pattern the gun, and if so, how did those chokes pattern for you? Like IC chokes should, or a little tighter/looser than normal?

I have to admit that I never did. But I did shoot a lot of skeet with it, mostly using 7/8 oz reloads. Nothing I saw--like a lot of really smoked targets--led me to believe that it shot any tighter than an IC choke should.

Imagine a 12 gauge improved modified choke that measures .015. Cut? Bored out? No, that is a very common constriction for a Winchester improved modified barrel. I don't count pattern holes any more, so I can't tell you about the pattern percentages but a Winchester improved modified barrel will break a trap bird. 27 yards? I don't know.
