Trial Chokes?

[Doug Pinnegar]

Is it possible to trial a set of chokes?

I'm planning on patterning my OE chokes this weekend and as I am interested in a set of Mullers I wouldn't mind patterning them as well to see what the difference would be. 

Do companies have demo chokes that can be borrowed? Or am I best buying and then re selling if they don't suit?

Not that I am aware of??

I think most folks buy them, try them, then use them or consign them to the paraphernalia cupboard ? (or flog 'em of course!)

Unless you have a friendly RFD that will do it, but can't see it.  Good luck with the quest and interested to hear if you find anywhere to let you test drive them ?- I'd quite like to see what difference Mullers make without buying them first ?

I actually do have a selection of demo chokes available for customers to try, providing of course they are the correct thread type for their gun ?

Drop me a line via www.mullerchokes.eu and lets see if we can make this happen ?

FYI I'm out of the office all next week but will sort on my return.

What gun?
It isn't just about patterns with Mullers, I use them and love them, you can read what I think about them if you click the link in my Sig below.

Yeah, 'course. Gotta see if they will fit in the garage (Hamilton)

HardFocus was kind enough to let me shoot a few stands with a pair of U1's in the gun this morning.

I was really surprised by the difference two little bits of metal made to the gun feel. 

However, I didn't straight the stands? I thought buying them bumped you up a CPSA ranking automatically?

​Its all in the mind - not the gun and certainly not the chokes!

It's 'cos they're borrowed. The ranking bump only happens when you buy them... ?

 

[Doug Pinnegar]

That makes perfect sense. I'm not sure why I didn't work that one out!

I will make sure that I provide my CPSA number to the retailer to get the increased ranking.

The thing I like about the mullers I have, is not the pattern. I'm sure it's ok, however if they're any better than my factory chokes I couldn't honestly tell you!? But what I do like is the weight difference. It noticeably makes a different feel in the "swing of the barrels" which I prefer.

It's amazing how a relatively small weight change makes such a apparent change when it's at the far end of the gun.

Those of you who shoot Muller chokes with success , I wonder if you could lend me a few thousand of your cartridges to see if it will improve my shooting, to go along with my Mullers , of course.

I should mention that my reasoning for looking at external chokes are not score related. I'm not good enough for a choke to matter, I'm missing by feet, not inches.

Its to stop the end of the barrels getting so dirty and gives me a cheaper point of impact in case of knocking the end of the gun. If I am buying some then I might as well get the best performing setup as they are all roughly the same cash.

I would love to know the results of your pattern test, personally I thinks it's about cartridges used, as much as choke brand.
