You man want to reconsider your choice of shotgun to shoot skeet with. As I remember, the Stoeger SxS, (coach guns) are not terribly expensive and you may be spending alot of money putting in chokes in a gun that's not worth all that much. You may find that for a few dollars more you could buy another gun thay may be better suited to skeet. If you're comfortable with your .410 and don't want much more kick, you can find some nice 20 gauge guns out there that would be much more effective. I've owned .410's, mostly for home defense, but have had them at the range and they just don't have the "legs" for skeet and trap. .410's are usually choked in FULL to keep what little shot they have in a tight pattern. If you open up that pattern, the clay busting ability of the .410 drops dramatically. Just some things to consider. I wouldnt want you to spend a load of $$ on choke tubes and then discover you can't hit a darn thing with them.
