On shot guns that have screw in chokes is the barrel cyl. bore before the choke?? I am thinking about machining an adapter to put a turkey choke on to my
single shot wich is full choke now. I know the transition inside has to be seamless, but that is not a problem. When I look down the barrel the choke is at
the last inch of the barrel. What do you all think.

Can't you shove some caliper in there and measure it, Widow? Thing is, I don't think it's a simple answer-some guns claim to be
"back-bored" some are not, and I think all that changes the diameter of the critical area-that's why more than just thread size differentiates a
choke that fits one gun from another.

I will try to measure the choke dia. I think the transition from my choke to the "new" one should be seamless, for safety and so it doesnt loose tons
of velocity.

I just measured the end of the bore and its .690 wich is just over 11/16" I will have to check out some different chokes or try to find someone that will
let me borrow one for measurements.

I have a bunch of choke tubes laying around. You are free to measure any and all of them.

I will do that when your classes begin. Any really tight turkey chokes?

.025" makes that much of a difference!!! How does it pattern out to 30+ yards? I only use the gun for the occasional groundhog expeditions, turkey and
starlings at work. The starlings fly fast, and there are tons of them. Makes for good practice wing shooting all summer long.

Widow-
I have an Undertaker turkey choke for my Rem. 870, the factory ultra-full turkey choke for the Mossberg 835, and the Dead Coyote tube for the 835. I think those are the tightest ones I have. HB |

That works I just need a variety to measure.
