Lubed and spun in a rifled Rem Choke tube into my new rifle-sighted, smoothbore, 870 barrel. The choke went in smoothly, just as the IC had done coming out.
Fired 15 assorted foster and beneke slugs to zero the gun--it shoots well. The tube did not loosen when checked between 3 round groups.
At cleaning, an hour or two after the range session the tube will not budge. Any suggestions on how to free the stubborn tube? Are slugs known to cause problems for the rifled Rem Choke?
The choke can stay in the barrel--it greatly improved the accuracy with foster style slugs when compaired to the IC tube, but I don't like not being able to clean and lube this high stress part. I'd appreciate you suggestions.
