    what choke setting?

    I want to shoot rifled slugs in my old mossburg bolt action 20 GA x 3" chamber. It has a variable choke settings; full, modified and improved. My question: what setting should I set the choke for shooting rifled slugs?

    +1 - The most open choke available.
    Old enough to know better, young enough to do it anyway!
