Patternmaster Code Black Duck vs. Kicks High Flyer vs. Factory Choke

This is not how you pattern a choke-load. Donkeys

If you're gonna do pattern testing, do it correctly. 40 yd 30 inch circle. Because what you're doing is childish and lazy

If you think this so-called test tells you anything at all, you’re kidding yourself. The next shell will look totally different. Do this 25 times for EACH choke using the same shells and shotgun and count the pellets in a predetermined area on the duck and perform an analysis of variance test and then you might see a difference in performance.

Not sure I got anything meaningful out of this, particularly as it appears to me that the Patternaster shot landed lower and to the left of the pattern sheet centre. If you’re going to demonstrate the patterning performance of various chokes and loads, then please use conventional time-proven patterning methods. Use a patter sheet or plate of at least 4’ x 4’ dimension. This will provide some margin of aim error. Further to this avoid pre-drawn drawn 30” circles. Simply draw a 30” circle around the main concentration of pellet strikes after the shot is taken. Likewise, repeat this test (ie. same choke, load and shooting distance) at least 3-5 times to gain some understanding of what that combo is doing. Repeat the rest 10 times if you want statistically valid information.

Top is cold black middle is factory and the last one was kick high flyer

Great video! I'm a local guy and hunt Gustine and Los banos area decoying ducks. I just got the A5 WW, coming from a super vinci. And I can't hit shit with my A5. Shooting bismuth... Was curious if you pattern tested the modified choke?

I think the one in the middle looks like the best pattern 👍🦆

It looks like you pulled low with the patternmaster, a more centered shot would make for a better comparison

Patternmaster patterns better with big shots #2 and bigger 😊

The pattern master you are using is improved modified not full so that’s why it has a wider pattern.

Is it ok to shoot steel out of your factory full choke. I got the same gun just wondering.

Did you notice any recoil reduction with the kicks high flyer?

The factory F is crazy on mine, I never tested the pattern but I get lethal long shots on birds it’s really superior even though I’m using 32 grams 23/4 shots

i ordered myself a kicks high flyer full choke for my benelli m2 a couple days ago. cant wait for it to get to me. cant shoot steel with factory full choke and i dont really like switching chokes between capricorn and bird hunting so it thought buying full choke from kicks is the best option.

The patternmaster looks like the bulk of the pellets hit low

They all work...

The A5 with the DS chokes are awesome. They pattern tight without the extra length.

I’ve tested a few chokes in my Maxus 2 and the ported chokes done worse than non ported, I use a muller passing choke and it’s my go to

Soy de España y estaría interesado en un Code black duck para Benelli crío centro

What camera are you using ? Any mics ?

I shoot factory Mod and IM of my A5, then go with the Jebs .690 for long range

If you shoot Kicks Thomas steal your Brother Titus’s haha. Love y’all.

Jebs choke tubes any good?

Ssshhhaaoooww

Unless you like duck soup I'd open up the chokes a bit

Kicks has the most holes in the pattern not a really good choice at all

Factory is the best

nice 🔥🔥
