    Most civilization is based on cowardice. It's so easy to civilize by teaching cowardice. You water down the standards which would lead to bravery. You restrain the will. You regulate the appetites. You fence in the horizons. You make a law for every movement. You deny the existence of chaos. You teach even the children to breathe slowly. You tame.

    Slugs = cylinder/no choke

    Buck = Modified
    Please read the Calguns Wiki
    Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes...Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.

        TheOriginalFlavor is correct. The best choke for rifle slugs out of a smooth bore is the fixed modified as it stablized the slug. You will get great goups with that choke. Worst is the Cyl Bore. The I/C will serve but not as well as the modified. When I say fixed, I say this as I don't like Choke tubes and do not use barrels that have them. Most all of my LEO duty wepaons leave my shop with the Remington 18.5 fixed modified police barrel and these guys have always thanked me later as they get fantasic groups with slugs and great patterns with buck shot.
