tiger,

If you're refering to an appartment as "home", then I don't think choke would be a factor.....at appartment range you'd be hard pressed to measure the difference in pattern size.

Having said that, an open ( cylinder or skeet ) will throw the larger shot pattern.

However, if you're defending a 150 acre farm, then a full choke will sufice for the shortest range, but will be much better for four legged predators at a range of say 50 yards or more.

For two legged predators, what is most effective is having the "predator" looking down the business end of TWO barrels, or to HEAR the shell being shucked and chambered by the slide-action or simi-auto.

With either of these techniques employed, you just may never have to fire a shot.
