2. Choke (firearms) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choke_(firearms)

   Generally the constriction ranges for chokes will be 0.00-1.15 mm (0.00-0.045 inch) while the constriction for relatively common turkey chokes may be as much as 2.50 mm (0.10 inch). Choke is measured experimentally by observing the percentage of pellets in a charge that impact inside a 75 cm circle at 35 m (25 m for "cylinder" and "Skeet"). [ 8 ]

3. Shotgun - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shotgun

   Shotguns intended for all-round hunting are a compromise, but a 72 to 74 cm (28–29 in) barrel pump-action 12-gauge shotgun with a modified choke can serve admirably for use as one gun intended for general all-round hunting of small-game such as quails, rabbits, pheasants, doves, and squirrels in semi-open wooded or farmland areas in many ...

5. Gauge (firearms) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_(firearms)

   By far the most popular is the 12 gauge, [7] particularly in the United States. [8] The 20-gauge shotgun is the next most popular size, being favored by shooters uncomfortable with the weight of a 12-gauge gun, and is popular for upland game hunting. The next most popular sizes are the .410 bore and the 28 gauge.

7. Shotgun slug - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shotgun_slug

   The diameter of the wad slug is slightly less than the nominal bore diameter, being around 0.690 in (17.5 mm) for a 12-gauge wad slug, and a wad slug is generally cast solely from pure lead, necessary for increasing safety if the slug is ever fired through a choked shotgun. Common 12 gauge slug masses are 7 ⁄ 8 oz ((383 gr (24.8 g)), 1 oz ...

8. Slug barrel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slug_barrel

   With an open choke, the reduction in diameter is minimal, so accuracy does not suffer much; tighter chokes, however, deform the slug enough to impact accuracy significantly, and the impact of the slug on the choke (at velocities around 450 meters per second (1500 feet per second)) could also stretch the barrel with repeated firings.

9. Shotgun cartridge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shotgun_cartridge

   This measurement comes from the time when early cannons were designated in a similar manner—a "12 pounder" would be a cannon that fired a 12-pound (5.4 kg) cannonball; inversely, an individual "12-gauge" shot would in fact be a 1 ⁄ 12 pounder. Thus, a 10-gauge shotgun has a larger-diameter barrel than a 12-gauge shotgun, which has a larger ...
