ROB.BOB 21 Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 Short and simple..If I put 32g SSG's through a half choke on my Auto will it banana my barrel? Quote Link to post
Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 Pull one apart and try to fit the slug into the end of the barrel? Saying that? I have two barrels and I don't think I'd like to try a slug down my choked one ..... If I had no choice? I'd ask a qualified gun smith or at least a RFD. Quote Link to post
Born Hunter 17,637 Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 SSG is buckshot as far as I'm aware, Pete. You'll be fine through half choke. You'll be fine through full I'd of thought, just won't do the pattern any favours. 2 Quote Link to post
Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 BH; I do believe you're perfectly correct too, mate Don't know what the f**k I was thinking of there I've fired Buck through my choked barrel.

andyf 144 Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 SSG are fine in a full choke, been there and done that, the 9 pellet 'pattern' though is a joke, in that is there isn't one, you could fluke a fox at 90 yards, then miss a static dinner plate from 30 yards with the next shot, but you only need one pellet to hit! However If you do try them be careful as they carry a long way and will ricochet off the ground and any hard surface all fly off over the place! AndyF 1 Quote Link to post
