			Mike,  you  could start  with  your  full  choke  tube,  too.  You  probably won't  be able  to shoot as  far as  you  would with a  turkey  choke,  but, I'd  guess  you'd  have a decent pattern at  30  yards,  which is  often plenty  far. Which  brings  up  something  else.  It is  vital  to pattern  your  gun.  Different  loads perform  differently-  some loads  your  gun will  like, some it  won't.  And  there's  no way to tell except  pattern a few.
 Another  thing:  when  you're trying to throw a  dense  tight pattern, you  don't  have  much  room for error in aiming. You need  to know  which  loads  shoot  to point of  aim, and  which  don't.  You're  going to be surprised  to find some loads  shoot  high, low, left or   right.
