I have a Remington 870 that I have been shooting for years with a lohman marsh max choke(I don't think they are made anymore) it's great for decoying shots but not so good for anything outside of 30 yards. I really would like to get a choke that puts 70%+ shot inside a 30 inch circle at 40 yards to help give me some extra range and decrease the amount of cripples. I have tested the factory modified and it's not quite there somewhere nearer 55%. However, when looking at chokes like the Carlson creamator and pattern master even their "extended range" chokes are more open regarding diameter than the factory modified. Am I missing something here? Is there some science behind the steel and length of the choke that works some magic? Any help would be appreciated.
