Hey Guys,
Years ago I read about a jug-choking tool that could be mounted on the end of a electric hand-drill that could be used to jug-choke a barrel. Have any of you seen or heard of such a tool? And if so, how effective was it? If you have any pictures, please post them.

I think you are referring to a brake master cylinder hone. It will work but measuring the amount of choke would be tricky. The tool is 3 stones about 1"long that are rotated on a shaft and have to be moved any time they are turning. It would be 30 sec. on then check progress and repeat. Best left to a good gunsmith. If you try it good luck.

Taylor,you will find this was discussed just last week. I have to believe the best solution is the tool pictured at the end of the thread and if your handy could be made without too much difficulty[url] http://www.muzzleloadingforum.com/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/200072[/url]/

“Full choke for a .62cal/.20ga needs about .030” expansion chamber to get “Full Choke”...the step-down leading back to the muzzle is critical".
