What is nominal bore size for a 12ga? I measured mine with a T gage and micrometer and it came out .725 right before the screw in choke.

I have some extended choke tubes that were marked 'full steel' and they measured .715?
With a reduction of .010 they would be 'Mod' wouldn't they? Or is it because the are for steel shot that they are not choked as much?

IIRC nominal is .729, don't know about the choke.

That's what I thought .730. I have an IC Steel choke that measures .735!!!
