When I change something/anything that might change the POA:POI ratio I'll use the tightest choke in my bag, to pattern it. Afterwards I go back to my regular chokes.

This week, I replaced a M.C. trap stock on one of my Brownings with a regular field/skeet stock. With the M.C. stock, POI was at lease 18" higher than the POA (110%/-00%). With the new stock POI is 6'' higher then the POA (75%/25%). ( Know anyone who wants to buy a Browning MC stock?) I then shot 2 rounds 23 & 24, not bad for a guy 70 years old and hasn't shot trap, really for about 10 years...

The maximum range of a firearm and/or cartridge, is usually measured in miles, and means nothing. 2a. The effective range of a firearm and/or cartridge, is usually (the ability of the shooter) measured in yards, and means everything.
