retrieverman Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 I use a Patternmaster for buckshot and large steel and have had great results. As far as standard chokes, I would use modified. I have found that my patterns are tighter and more consistent with modified. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butch-M Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Better check to make sure of that shot size. Many states don't even allow "buckshot" any more because it's a notorious deer crippler. It's much better to use a single projectile; and in many states it's the only thing legal to shoot. Remington Buckhammers, and Federal "Truball" are excellent slugs. The outside ethical range of buckshot is usually considered to be 25 to 35 yards ... those slugs will increase your range to at least 75 yards.
