Understanding Chokes:

Our chokes come with a “notch” marking system.  Look at the muzzle end of the choke and see how many notches it has.  Here are the notch numbers and accompanying choke indication:

• 1 notch = Full
• 2 notches = Improved modified
• 3 notches = Modified
• 4 notches = Improved cylinder
• 5 notches = Cylinder
