Lyman adjustable choke bead

tmlynch · July 31, 2018, 12:16 PM

I have an old Remington Model 11 with a Lyman adjustable choke. The front bead has gone missing from the choke. Does any know what size the threads are for this bead?

Thanks,
Tom

its hard to say without taking the old one out. Some were pressed in . Best to just tap new threads and install a new one.

Or a good gunsmith may have one at hand. Brownells sells a plastic box with various sizes and many gunsmiths have them.

Common sizes are 3-56 and 5-40. Most gunsmiths will have a box of shotgun beads on hand.
