Is anyone shooting black cloud with the black cloud choke tube. I am thinking of buying the choke tube but am wondering if it is worth the money or if there is a better option out there. Thanks for any suggestiions.

Shoot BC with a carlson choke.

What size and what type of hunting are you doing. I am ducks over decoys usually fairly close range.

Been shooting the long range choke tube the last 2 weeks with every shot. Its impressive at killing birds dead with slower loads than black cloud, at up to 40yards. I will be shooting it for the rest of the season. The pattern is tight, but where I am hunting we need birds DOA, cripples are not an option. I would recommend black cloud 3inch 2's if you got the cash around. That is the best pattern I have found.

With this wind, the tighter choke has helped when the birds catch air and bug out in a hurry. I probably wouldn't use it if I were hunting in an area that was wind blocked.

This wind has been something now snow. I was thinking of getting the mid range one for now because that would cover the majority of my situations and then if money allows get the long range for those days that requre it. Thanks

I shoot a mossburg 500 and didn't see one listed for this gun but maybe I will have to call them. I did see that some chokes grab the wad and with black cloud this wouldn't work. If i am correct the wad stays with the shot longer for denser patterns. Thanks for the info.

i have been shooting the carlsons black cloud mid range throughout the season, and so far it has performed well, i also have the long and short range carlsons choke tubes i have patterned them on paper but so far have not used them. im pretty happy with the mid range though. couldnt have asked for any better combo out of the browning.

Wish a guy could Test Drive choke tubes to pattern them out of a his gun. It would sure beat buying more than one to try.
