I would hate to try to count how many ducks I have killed with a full choke, either 28" or 30". After I got serious and did a lot of patterning, I found that for shot bigger than #4, slightly less choke usually patterns tighter. So now I have an Improved Modified in my 3" Wingmaster Light Contour barrel, and another one in my 30" shortened to 28" 3" Steel Shot Remington 1100 barrel. I've killed a bunch of geese too, but I could probably count that high. Probably.
