When I hunted with an O/U I had two patten master originals. Bird hunting I used IC and Mod

One thing I noticed is in shot fewer shells and killed about the same number of ducks. I just didn’t rush shots like I did with 3 shells.

Yea I typically find myself just shooting the third because it’s there. Sometimes it pays off but mostly not.

I use a kicks high flyer mod out of an 870. Allegedly the actual constriction is closer to a stock improved cylinder. Something you may want to look at is the actual constriction vs what they claim the choke to be.
