I bought a Benelli Nova last Christmas, and it came from the factory with three chokes: Improved Cylinder, Modified, and Full.
About three months ago I went to screw the Modified choke in for the first time, and it wouldn't go past about a half a turn (the other two chokes go in like butter). It appeared as though the choke was improperly threaded from the factory, so I called Benelli customer service. The lady was really nice and said they'd send me another one.
Well it's been three months and still no choke. Is it time to call back? Is this typical? What should I do if they "claim" to have sent it out a long time ago?
Also, I've only put 75 rounds through the gun when I went to go shoot 5-stand with my friend. Did pretty well, as it was my first time shooting a shotgun. I had the Improved Cylinder choke in when I went last time, and we are going again today. Since I only have the Improved Cylinder and Full at the moment, which would be better for shooting 5-stand?
What scenarios are the three different chokes typically used for? Which would you use for duck hunting?
This site has been so helpful with many different questions! Thanks ahead of time!
