I'm not even sure if this is necessary - as I've never shot backyard clay with my new-to-me 18" 870, only done that with my uncles 28". Mine is obviously a HD shotgun, but I want to have a little more fun than just shooting slugs and 00 buck at paper. The barrel is tapped already, and has the Remington tactical cylinder bore choke in it. Should I pick up new choke? Or will the distances (however far the clay can be thrown) not really require a restriction? Or maybe a certain # shot? Or both? Can I get some recommendations please? The internet is loaded with people saying "You need a 28"+ bla bla" or "I do it all the time with my 18." I'm not finding any details about if these 18" barrel guys are using a particular shot, or choke...
Again, just blasting backyard clay here. MAYBE putting a plug in and shooting a bird, maybe. I have no interest in trap or shotgunning at any club at this time. Thanks!
