Which of the given shotgun chokes offers the tightest constriction?

  1. cylinder--like "sprinkler" on hose

  2. improved cylinder

  3. modified choke

  4. full choke-highest and furthest

The correct answer is: full choke-highest and furthest

A Cylinder choke is the most open form of a choke and is best for short-range shooting. It allows for the widest spread of shots, making it suitable for shooting small birds or for skeet shooting. B: Improved cylinder choke is slightly more constricted than a cylinder choke and offers better accuracy and range than a cylinder choke. It is suitable for shooting medium-sized birds or for closer range shooting in trap or sporting clays. C: Modified choke is a tighter constriction than an improved cylinder choke and allows for better accuracy and range. It is suitable for shooting small and medium-sized birds or for medium range shooting in sporting clays. D: Full choke is the tightest constriction available and offers the highest accuracy and range. It is suitable for shooting small, medium, and large birds or for long range shooting in trap or sporting clays. Therefore, full choke is the correct answer as it offers the tightest constriction out of all the given options.
