Since the CZ choke shot so well, I got Trulock to make me one for the Franchi 48AL and the Ithaca 37.

The weather wasn't ideal with 10-12 mph crosswinds. But here are the 40 yd, 10" and 10-20" patterns with a Trulock .520 from this weekend - same 1.5 oz load of TSS 9-1/2s:

Great patterns Hal! :thumbup:
Sure wish Trulock could have made me a custom choke for my Remington 28ga, just hope at this point my custom Briley choke I am having made will shoot that well.....

Really nice even patterns, darn near perfect imo. It would be hard to miss a turkey with those.

Hal the trulock .520 choke the choke you'd recommend for al48? Also what kind of turnaround time did they give you after you contacted them? Lastly may I ask what did it cost to have trulock make it
