Choke Tubes Explained - Ft. Henry Lever Action 410

Ойын-сауық

What are choke tubes? How do choke tubes work? Why do you need choke tubes? These are some of the questions I've gotten in the comments section of my previous videos. I've done other videos about choke tubes on this channel but it seems the .410 videos get the most questions so I thought I'd post a .410 specific video with some answers.

    ​@@buffalosoutdoorshey, can you please do some tests of 45LC in a .410 shotgun? I know many people question if the berneke slug does better or just a nice powerful hunting load of 45LC? Any chance you could test accuracy at 75 yards between the two as well in addition to a close gel block test? Thank you so much for the consideration and all you do!

We don't get to enjoy it as much as we'd like due to our time being split between maintaining the park and helping guests. It is still satisfying at the end of the day but I don't know if we will sign on for another season after this one or not.

    24 күн бұрын

    I am not sure I understand your question. I believe you are asking why use a .410 choke if the bore is already .410. If that is what you're asking it's because you need a choke tube installed to protect the choke tube threads inside the bore. Even though it doesn't add any constriction it is still serving a purpose.
