Back in the 60's and 70's I was really hooked on pheasant hunting. I started out with a shotgun with a full choke because my pappy had taught me that this was the "only" way to go. I was missing a lot of pheasants that flushed real close, and those that I did hit with the tight pattern were almost completely destroyed (nothing left to eat). I traded for a Remington 870 with modified choke and started having much better luck on pheasants. I switched to a Zabala side by side choked modified and full. Most of the pheasants I bagged with that shotgun were taken with the "modified" barrel. The shotguns of today are available with barrels threaded for choke tubes. My opinion is that a double barreled shotgun with an improved cylinder choke on one barrel and a modified choke on the other would make a really "dandy" pheasant whacker. The double could be either side by side or over & under.
