Looking for an extended choke for my Nova 12ga pump. It is my "extra" waterfowl gun, and I am having trouble finding a good, mid range extended choke for it. The Carlson choke that fits Benelli fits very oddly into the gun because of how the choke is threaded, and I am not liking it. Does anyone out there use a Nova and an extended choke that you like? All suggestions welcome! Thanks all.
I just bought a patternmaster for my Benelli Nova......They make a duck choke and a goose choke, along with many others to suite your needs. I bought the goose choke. Claims it will knock em down out to 70 yards with the right load. We shall see.
I just today bought the Patternmaster extended long range choke for the new 20 ga. I'm hoping I can use 20 ga not only for for pheasants, ducks, but hopefully be able to kill a lot of snow geese with it. Dang 12 gauge beats the crap out of me after a few days in Sask.
Just for the record Tom (waterdog711) they are now $90 plus $5 for shipping. But they were very helpful on phone and its already been shipped!
Lastly, I bought a Briley choke for skeet, eh, didn't really help up my scores impressively. Expensive choke I thought may help my sucky skeet skills.
But I think a extended choke may really make this little gun versatile.
Oh and don't need no stinkin wench for the patternmaster either Gooser!
Carlson, have had the patermaster on both of my guns benelli and a berreta and the carlsons out did both of them on paper and in the field. Ken the extended choke typically produces a more uniformed shot string comming out of the barrel resulting in a better pattern..
I also mostly use the modified that came with the Nova.
One great morning of early teal, I had shot for the colonial field trial the weekend before back when they held a fall trial in Stowe, VT. I still had an aftermarked open choke in made for skeet, that I shoot live birds at tests with. I limited before anyone else in the blind that morning. Do not know what that says about my shooting. But gosh I was dropping those quick little buggers at will, that morning.
