BTW, how is a IM choke vs M for clays?

How fast are the 1oz loads you shoot? I shot a box of Fiocchi 1oz at 1290, I think, and it beat the crap out of me. Way more felt recoil than 1 1/8 oz 1145 imo. So my point is not all 1oz loads are the same. The 1145 stuff is always by far the softest shooting 1 oz load.

As to Mod Vs I Mod I like tight chokes and the confidence they give me but in the end you need to choke for the target presentation.

What kind of gun are you shooting?

I’ve been shooting a Browning B-27 for several years. Very nice but a light field gun. It’s 28” and choked IM/IC and I’m satisfied with that. I’ve come across another Browning that’s 30” and choked IM/IM. Very clean and a good tight gun. It has my interest. I do intend to put the decelerated in my current gun.
