Clarification in case you may not be aware of it:

Having a Jug Choke in a barrel causes the opposite effect when using different amounts of cushion wads.

Normally in a smoothbore, too large of a cushion wad tends to thin out a pattern...often a half wad, a smaller amount of wad, will give a tighter pattern than a full wad...but just the opposite when there's a Jug Choke involved.
