It all has to do with bore diameter. The nominal 12-gs bore diameter is 0.729 inches, while a skeet choke has a construction of 0.005 inches, so a skeet choke in a nominal 12-ga barrel has a bore diamater of 0.724 (0.729 - 0.005). But many of today's barrels are overborded, that is a bore diameter of greater than the nominal 0.729 in 12-ga. Common overbore diameters variy from 0.735 to 0.742 inches depending on the manufacturer. So if you have a barrel overbore diameter of 0.735, a skeet choke will have a constriction of 0.005 and a "final" bore diamter of 0.730, essentialy a cyclinder (no choke) for a nominal 12-ga barrel.

To clear up your choke dilemia you need to find out the bore diameter or your guns.

It is overbored, .735.

I'm told all Briley chokes are one choke tighter than Tru-choke.

I'll just have to play with it.
