I just bought a weatherby Sa-459 in 12 gauge. Anyone got a recommended choke for this gun and any pattern pics? Shooting TSS #9s
I know a lot of people have the 20 but not finding too much informatio on the 12s.

Does that have invector threads like the 20ga?

Tougher question than I thought, invector but NOT the invector plus. Seems like they have jumped around with the choke threads in the SA-459 over the last few years.
For my model weatherby’s website says it uses the IMC (Integral Multi Choke) and “The IMC choke tube thread pattern is compatible with the following choke tube patterns: Browning Invector (not Plus), Mossberg Accu-Choke and Win-Choke. Suggested aftermarket choke tube manufacturers: Trulock, Carlson’s, Briley Manufacturing.”

After one more boom in the night, I am happy to say that I am ready to hunt and the factory choke did exactly what I was looking for.
The specs:
Weatherby SA-459 Xgreen model 12 gauge
Factory Choke
32 degrees
2.25 oz tss #9
1205 +- fps
Total 635 in 20 inch circle, uniform distribution and only gonna get better at warmer temps roughly 300/300 split between 10/20 circles. 40 versus 60
