What is everyone’s choke/ammo recommendation for a franchi 3.5 20 gauge? Looking to finally jump on the TSS train this year. Recently bought it and trying to get it setup.

If you want a choke that is good, but won't break the bank, I would shoot a Carlson, non-ported choke in either a .555, or .575, and would shoot Apex 9s out of that gun. I can't recall, but they make the non ported one in only .575. If you wanted to buy more expensive choke, go get an Indian Creek in .562, which is right in between, or get the .555. And i would definitely shoot apex out of a semi-auto Franchi.

Haven't shot it yet but I got a Jebs .565 for my new affinity, same choke that I've been shooting in my youth 870. If it patterns as good as the 870 does I'll be golden.
