I use an improved cylinder in a 28” barrel, but I’m generally shooting wood ducks at very close range.

Pattern your gun and then decide. I pattern mine at 40 yards.

Pattern your gun and then decide. I pattern mine at 40 yards. Until you do this, you are guessing. What is perfect for my gun may not throw an acceptable pattern in yours. I have 2 new model A5s. Same length barrel. Exact same chokes and the POI is different and the holes in the pattern are different. Some things that you can work with Faster loads tend open open faster and require more choke Larger shot tends to pattern tighter Heavier shot tends to pattern tighter Slow heavy loads require less choke and vice versa. I shoot faster loads 1550 and up. Some prefer slower heavier loads. I have one load that is 1 oz of 3s running 1825 FPS. Improved mod to modified works great with this load. I load another load that is 1 1/8 oz of #6 E Shot running 1525. Cylinder works all the way out to 50 plus yards.
