Aftermarket Chokes for Brownings?

stubblejumper said:
I ordered two extended SKEET chokes today,as well as extended IC,MOD,and FULL,since my gun only came with two flush fitting skeet tubes.I only ordered a FULL to use if I decide to shoot a few rounds of trap.I generally hunt with IC and MOD.When you purchase five Briley chokes,you get a sixth one at no extra cost,so I chose the LM,as the extra choke.

Just wondering. I have just bought a couple of choke tubes also for my 28ga which I could not get in canada direct from briley US and was told I have to keep my order under 200.00 or I will need a ton of paper work like permits etc. to get them into canada
Your order looks like it is over 200.00.?? was that mentioned to you??I have been staying under 200 just to be safe and placing more orders. Yes I pay extra shipping but I cannot buy what I need up here.
try to get briley thin wall chokes for a 410 or 28ga in canada. NOT

My order was over $200,and I specifically asked the person taking the order to make sure that there would not be an issue with sending the order to Canada.They assured me,that there was no problem.

Interesting. I know the law says 100.00 but I have been told for canada they will go as high as 200 canadian for parts. I have never went over the 200 canadian and had no issues. I hope all goes smoothly for you.
Here is what brownells say about it

The forum members have adequately covered the essentials of Wingshooting tips required at this point in time.

You may agree though that on the matters pertinent to such acitivity it can be difficult for someone to be fully explicit when outlining theory to an individual who haven't had direct exposure as such to effectively visualize the chain of reflexes that are triggered along the process.

Needless to mention, only first hand experience gained could overcome that sort of gap, if you will. You will find that the scenarios will shift rapidly even if you may be decoying and/or pass shooting birds on that field/waterbody.

Just bear in mind not to cease the momentum of your swing even after you've taken the shot. Oh, yeah! Nothing flies faster than Waterfowl, well, other than fast moving doves.:D We shall look forward to a successful hunt and of course, few images. :)
 
A bunch of honkers flying by a spread can be as fast if not faster than smaller ducks. Smaller ducks are more maneuverable and seems faster, but a group of giant honkers can swing by real fast. You know they are going at a good pace when you find yourself swinging like crazy on the follow through after the shot.

USP, when are you going goose hunting? Better get on it soon unless you are hunting Resident birds, are you going on a guided hunt?

I think I have until the 15th. My buddy is sitting on a beach in Dominican right now, when he gets back we are going to another buddies farm. Hopefully early next week!

Yeah I got my Quackzilla discount goose caller, been sitting there making goose noises at work. Apparently its hard on the ears if you call somebody on the phone and blast goose calls down the line on them :p

UPS is this your 1st time hunting geese in a field blind??

I would bet it may be the first time shooting a shot gun that was not black or green or that did not have a bayonet attached.;)
UPS, for your first goose shoot, I hope you get to enjoy a few really close encounters.:cheers:

Yeah its my first time out hunting. Its true my other shotguns are short 870s or 590A1s, but its time for alittle bit of change.

I think we are going to hunt them in a cornfield. I dunno yet. I will try and get some pictures and post them when I am done.
 
USP I could post a couple pictures to whet your appetite if you want. If you are shooting from a layout make sure you do a few dry runs before you have to swing on real birds. If the birds are close just hold right on them and let er rip. Shotgunning is one of the few times when less thinking is generally better as the goal is to be smooth.
 
Ive shot at reactive targets lots of times using all sorts of guns. I got my slow cooker all dusted off and am ready!

Cool. You will have a blast. I am no expert UPS but did guide 3-6 groups a year since 1984 stopping just 4 years ago to battle cancer. My close friend is an outfitter so I would help with his overflow.
I won't get into setting up decoys, calling etc but just a few things that I find may help.
If there is three in your blind establish your shooting zone up front, if you are far left you shoot the left side of the spread so you are not going to shoot the same birds which happens all the time if you don;t establish your area.
Make sure you wear a facemask like a bow hunter uses and camo up the backs of your hands. Sun on your face looks like a pie plate for a mile to geese.When they are coming in or flying over checking you out keep your face to the ground and no movement at all in the blind.
They will be real spooky this time of year so you have to be patient.
Once you get in the blind do a dry run to make sure there is no branches, boards etc going to catch you or your gun when the time comes to shoot.
If you are shooting 3 shots make the 3rd one heavier than the 1st two since by then the geese will be farther away , like two no2 then a bb. If two shots one no.2 and one bb
Once they see your spread the less you call this time of year the better, just a few whines close to the end is all that is required.
As far as shooting I have always told clients to shoot for the lips, if they are in front aim for the beak, if passing swing by and pull when you pass the end of the beak keeping the gun moving.Paint them out of the sky we would say
Hard to do at first but pick out one bird and stay with him until you see he buckles, then move to another. So easy to just flock shoot when there is so many in front of you but it doesn't work.I remember a group of 4 guys taking 12 shots at over 20 birds maybe 15 yards out and never touched any of them.
Oh yes those chokes you mention that you will be using will be fine with steel no.2 and bb.
Good luck and pictures please
