Choke Vs. Choke

Got an American Arms O/U shotgun I'm gonna get some new chokes, what do you guys think about flush chokes Vs. sporting clays chokes.

Depends on how often you plan to change chokes. Flush chokes are better looking but extended are more practical for quick changes. I shoot a lot of sporting clays and all my chokes are Briley extended tubes.

How often are you going to change them? If often, then extended chokes are easier.

First things first - does your gun come with chokes and have you patterned each one from each barrel with all of the different types of loads you will be using? Your factory chokes may be just fine

I have both for my Browning O/U's and much prefer the Briley extended chokes. They are easier to change and easier to check for tightness at any time. JUST MAKE SURE the shotgun is NOT LOADED before putting your fingers near the muzzle/s.

Plus, extended chokes also serve to protect the end of your barrel.
