gunner40sw Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 What two chokes do you guys use for shooting doubles and in what barrel top or bottom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty o Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 trap double i use an IM in the bottom barrel which i shoot first, and a LF in the top. im only a fair to middlin doubles shooter, so my advice may not be worth a dang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
practical_man Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 For skeet, I use just two cylinder chokes. For double trap, light mod first, then improved mod on top. For sportibg clays, it depends on the array. I tend to use less choke than others do. Works better with the lighter payloads I prefer. In 12 gauge I use 3/4 ounce claybuster wads for targets under 35 yards. 1 ounce for everything else. For 20 gauge, it's 3/4 ounce for everything. If course smaller shot size for close targets. Larger for longer ranges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naka16 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 For practice, full over full. For competition I use the same. If im going to miss, it won't be Because of the wrong choke. I like 1oz #8 or #9 at 1200fps. More shot the better and 9's will break em from the 22 yard line as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantrap Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 i use mod in the bottom barrel (.020") and full in the top barrel (.035"). 2-3/4 dram 8s for both shots unless its real windy. Then i shoot 3 dram 7-1/2s. I like the new Federal Grand shell for ATA shoots and what ever i got laying around for practice. I am a AA- 27- A dbls. shooter. All i can say is the faster you can shoot the better, good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k80clay Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 M bottom barrel, IM top barrel. Don't look for the first target to break before moving to the second (you hit it or you didn't - you don't get a second chance) and the IM should be fine. Like I've heard said - there's no extra credit for smoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

verla Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I have found that 0.20/0.25 in lower bbl (fires first) then 0.34 in upper bbl is a good combination that works well for me. If you are on the clay it will break. This choke combination also leaves you open to shoot live birds with the same gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
683beretta Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Mod on the first target and full on the second. shoot the first target as fast as you can so you can roll on to the second BEFORE it starts to fall fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnappi Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Trap full/full - Skeet O/U skt/skt. At skeet I shoot both a SxS which has cyl and M, and whether SxS or O/U I don't have a first shot barrel preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigGabe Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I like to use modified in the bottom barrel and light full in the top. Bottom barrel is always first with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
