A question about firing shot through a paradox choke......The shot takes up a donut pattern, I've read.
If a flash suppressor was on the end of the choke, or even maybe a short piece of tube, would'nt that tend to
"straighten out" the shot back into more or less an even pattern?
Hope that someone with many rounds down range might opine?
Thank you

Shot fired thru a paradox choke or rifled barrel will continue to spread out in a donut pattern because of centrifugal force. The spin imparted by the choke won't be fixed by a flash hider or more barrel.

your pattern opens up REAL quick..... It ain't great on the rifling's either......

Personally I'd take it off for shot.

Rifiling and shot, is a great way to hit everything EXCEPT what you are aiming at.

I had a cheapie .410 import single shot TC Contender type with a conventional rifled choke tube and a straight rifled tube (with straight grooves no spin). They both sucked for shot. I traded it off.
