Factory chockes and good old Winchester steel shot will work just as good as long as you can hit what your aiming at.

factory modified with 3" dryloc #3's.......works great for me in my X2!!! If you are going to skybust a few that you can't put in the decoys, then you may need to check the other chokes out.. Just my opinion!!!! I dont shoot unless I know the opportunity of a kill is close to 100%... The closer I can coax them, the greater rush I get.....That's just the way I like to hunt. You may be totally different?? It's all your preference anyway!!

Factory Mod in fields, factory IC in timber, 3'' #2 or 4, but if you just have to have an extended choke I can sell you a Kicks Mod.
Damn, i thought I had that one

Is that buddy of yours tryin to blow that call or make love to it?

+1000

Most of those chokes and high dollar shells are over priced for what little benefit you MIGHT see from them. Federal or Winchester 1 1/4 ounce 2's out of a factory modified kill em dead, all day every day if you can hit like cwink said.
