jsr1014 Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Is anyone using the Flight control or versa tite 00 2 3/4 buckshot in the M1014. Specifically the M1014 as it has no choke. How is the patterning on these loads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullassault Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 The civilian M1014 (not sure about the Military version) has a modified choke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know they had two versions of the M1014. I know the M4 has swapable chokes and the M1014 has a fixed modified choke. Good to know.

cas Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 There's only one way to know which ones your gun will like. That's not not a smart ass answer, it's just fact. IME, the old adage "every gun is a law unto itself" really REALLY applies with shotguns-chokes-buckshot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceephus Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 I shoot LE132 1B out of mine fine, got 5 cans of the stuff laying around. It's never hiccuped and I get pie-plate patterns all day. I use it in an m4 sbs, as well as a sbs Remington 870 and a long barrel 870. It hits what I'm aiming at, been doing a lot of varmint control the last 3 years and it's tight and humane in my guns. You still have to just see what your gun likes and doesn't though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
