Has anybody here used the Patternmaster chokes?
I am wondering if they are worth all that money. Last year duck hunting missed a few ducks and injured some that i had to shoot again after they submerged in the water and came out in a different spot. I was using the Remington chokes that came with my shotgun. I was using a modified choke over decoys.
Thanks in advance.

Re: shotgun chokes
Love mine. I have the long range for my super black eagle. Nice for weary public land birds that tend to land on the outside edge of decoys. Able to follow up on longer birds too with a tighter shot at that distance.

I haven't but a friend of mine who I trust on all things hunting swears by Patternmaster.

I would be surprised if that was the problem. If you aren't on the bird the best choke in the world ain't gonna help you.
Putting some shot on paper is the only real good answer here. Throwing money at premium chokes probably won't hurt, but it may be uneccessary.

I'm a little late to the party on this post, but I thought I would give you my input if you haven't already bought one yet. This season I picked up a Patternmaster Code Black duck, which like all PM's use the stud ring to catch the wad for a split second allowing your steel shot to leave the wad at once, which results in a much denser pattern. I personally thought it was all BS until I had my first hunt with it, and I must say it makes my gun feel like a laser beam if I'm on target, with almost no crippled ducks.
