I would tend to agree with camoloc. I have a Navy Arms .that I believe is choked full and full but is unmarked. It mikes around .675-.680 on both barrels. Measuring farther down the barrel also makes me think it is closer to .710 and is 13 gauge.
 
4 is Cylinder and 0 is full when it comes to dashes or stars, are you sure you listed the corresponding barrel correctly for each?

My bore measures around .717 so .710 would be around IC and .680 would be very full
 
relatively sure my postings are correct.

measurement taken from a digital electronic mic with repeated zeroing just to make sure I was not off.

either way, love the gun and will adjust variables accordingly.

just looking for real accounts amd experiences.

thanks

maybe somewhere between Improved cylinder and modified depending upon measurement avg?

i was thinking felt more modified which I love........but maybe I'm just hopeful.

Dear Mr. Bailey,

Thank you for the continuous preference in our guns.

Your 20 ga. side by side shotgun was produced at the end of 2004 and was shipped to Cabela's during the beginning of 2005.

It should be be like our S.285, you can see at the following link and read the features: https://www.davide-pedersoli.com/s...-by-side-shotgun-classic-standard-cal-20.html

It is chrome lined.

Further the shot, you can also shoot round ball:

60 grs. of FFg. 614” round ball, .010” patch
70 grs. of FFg with 1 oz of shot #7

The numbers you may find inside the stock and also on some fo the metal parts, are made in the first metal to fitting works, then the parts are disassembled to continue their proper finish and when they go back to the assembly dept, the parts are matched

At the support section of our web site, you can download the general manual, including also your shotguns. https://www.davide-pedersoli.com/supporto.asp?l=en

My 12 gauge Pedersoli is 0.72 and 0.70, and was sold as "choked cylider on the right hand and improved on the left hand".
