What others are saying about Wad Wizard Choke Tubes |
| |
I would like to say hello and thank you for your perfect and really magical product-Wad Wizard Supreme Choke Tube, which I bought approximately 5 month ago for my Baikal MP 153. I am hunting about 18 years and I have not in my practice such a denser and powerful pattern. In this season I have killed about 40 ducks and most of them fell down to the ground like a stone. I was shooting #5 and #3 (European size) lead shot from 35 to 60 meters. So I can say it is the best choke tube for waterfowl hunting for me.

"For anybody that shoots buckshot your Wad Wizard is the REAL DEAL !!! I was looking for a tube that would give me a 50 yd. coyote killer pattern. Well, that was easy.Without a doubt the most awesome buckshot patterns I have ever seen !! Thank you for a great product and great customer service."

"I just wanted to let you guys know how pleased I am with my Supreme. I hunt divers on the Columbia River in Eastern Washington and they are some tough birds. Cripples can really be a pain to chase down. Last Thursday, we set up for bills and I was amazed at how well Federal 3.5" 2's at 1500 were performing. I tripled on the first flock, all drakes laying belly up in the water. No swatting, no getting the boat, just belly up, feet kicking. As the day wore on I continued to just crush birds. I shot my limit without a single cripple. I will never shoot at waterfowl without a Wad Wizard Supreme in my gun again."

"
I just got in from testing the Supreme Choke I purchased from Wad Wizard. As I explained to you I was having trouble getting my formerly very accurate Browning BPS to pattern the buckshot loads that are on the market today. The "old" loads that had the granulated dry packing were very accurate but unfortunately I can't find them anymore since they have been replaced by the plastic wad cup shells. After testing the Supreme choke I am pleased to announce that I am "in love" with my BPS once more. I tested both the recommended 2 3/4 inch and 3 inch "00" Federal Supreme loads. My first shot with the 2 3/4 inch shell placed 8 of the 9 pellets in a 9 inch pie plate at 30 yards with the one pellet missing the plate by about 1/4 inch. Most of the pellets were within a 6 inch circle!!! The 3 inch shell did not pattern as well but placed 7 of the 12 pellets in the 9 inch pie plate at 30 yards. Needless to say I am sticking with the 2 3/4 inch Federal shells for next season. Thanks so much for such a great product. I will be ordering a Supreme Choke for my Benelli M-2 shortly."

"I want to thank you for such an incredible choke tube. The early season in Maryland finally arrived and I couldn't be happier with my new choke tube. Last Friday I tripled up on birds for the first time in my life. I know without my Wad Wizard this would not have happened. There will never be another choke tube in my Beretta, that’s for sure. I absolutely swear by your product and have only hunted 3 days with it. I will definitely be convincing my hunting buddies to get a Wad Wizard by the end of the season for goose and sea duck hunting."

"I ordered a Swat tube for my Win SX2 this past Monday. I was very surprised when it arrived on Wed, 2 days later ( excellent service ). Just happens I was going duck hunting on Saturday so I got to break it in. One word, "AWESOME", THIS CHOKE FLAT OUT CRUSHES THE BIRDS. Shot both ducks and geese with it with devastating results. My only regret is that I didn't get one sooner! Thanks again, for producing a great product and great service."

"Well I hit the patterning board again this weekend armed with my new Wad Wizard Supreme, which Lorie had shipped out to me in no time (thanks again Lorie!). Time wasn't on my side with the season coming so fast, but I wanted to take my new gun out. I was fairly sure that the Wad Wizard would throw a decent pattern, but wasn't convinced it would be a great pattern. WOW, was I wrong! The 30 yard pattern was down right disgusting. By far the most even pattern I've ever seen out of a tube. There were 2-5 pellets outside of a 30" circle, with a solid 75% inside a 20" circle. The 4" circle I used for an aiming point had 15 pellets in it. The choke worked well with the Remingtons, and even better with the Federal Flight Control shells. That's the only choke I've had that could shoot those things worth a crap. Too bad they kick like a mule."

"I have now been able to use and evaluate both the SWAT and Supreme choke tubes on this past waterfowl season. All I can say is WOW! These tubes are the best choke tubes I have ever used. The SWAT tube is devastating on ducks over decoys and the Supreme absolutely pummels geese. I Pro-Staff for Longneck Outdoors, www.longneckoutdoors.com and have been suggesting your product ever since I have started. When people ask me what type of choke I shoot and would recommend, hands down I tell them Wad Wizard. I am truly impressed with your product and highly recommend your tubes to anyone who wants to improve their shooting.

"First let me start by saying, I am not new to shooting. I have been shooting and hunting all my life and I am also an armorer and range instructor where I work. I wanted to write to you and advise you of what a fantastic choke tube you manufacture. Approximately a week ago, 12-29-05, I contacted Lorie and inquired about your Wad Wizard Supreme Choke Tube for a Beretta Extrema. I told you that I shot Winchester Buckshot and you told me that your tube may not produce very good patterns with Winchester due to the poor construction of their wads. You suggested Federal Buckshot. You also told me that I had the opportunity to try your product and if I was not satisfied I could simply return it to you. I ordered the tube on a Friday before a Holiday weekend and I received it on the next business day. I went to the range with two types of Winchester buckshot and a box of Federal Premium buckshot. All the buckshot was 3 1/2 inch 00. I set up targets at 50 yards. I fired the Winchester Super X and was only able to get 2 or 3 pellets in a 20 inch circle. I then fired the Winchester Supreme with a little better results, 5-6 pellets in a 20 inch circle. By this time I was already telling my 5 year old son not to break the box the choke tube came in figuring I was going to be sending it back. I then tried the Federal 00. I could not believe my eyes. At 50 yards I was able to consistently put 11 -12 of the 18 pellets in a paper plate. That's only a 12 inch circle. I have never had buckshot shoot so well. It was even more amazing to me that your product actually works as advertised. I can't remember when the last time was that I bought a product that did everything it was advertised to do. This tube is fantastic. Lorie, I want to thank you for a job well done. I don't know how your competitors can stay in business against such a great product. I would hope that if anyone is thinking of trying out the other tubes on the market they give the Wad Wizard a shot first. You wont go anywhere else."

"Just wanted to give you an update on how the Wad Wizard is doing in the late season goose. We've been putting the hurt on the LARGE Geese, these suckers are tough, with a solid 1.5 inches of down, thick skin and fat and chest/breast muscle in the 2-3 inch zone, and that's before you even get to the breast bone. Its head shots or nothings coming down. To Date the largest is 16 1/2 pounds. The combo of Steel BB's and the Wad Wizard® Supreme has been deadly. Its great shooting the birds in one shot and mov'n on to the next. While my friend have to shoot several times at the same goose, I'm 1 shot = dead bird. They slow'm down and I drop'm dead. Most of our shots have been in the 15-30yd range, but for the rookies in our group who don't always hit them hard, it's been great to be able to reach out with the Supreme and finish them off. Thanks again for the great product."

"I had the first chance yesterday to try out the new toy.Boy was I impressed. We were shooting Canada’s over a grass paddock, by Lake Wairarapa. We had only set out about 3 doz GH Full Bodies and the wind was blowing a howling North Westerly. The other 2 guys were shooting 3” lead, because we are allowed to as long as it isn’t over water.I was determined to try out the Wad Wizard with Steel to see how it performed. Absolutely outstanding!!!!!!!! We pulled off some long shots and the Wad Wizard equaled the Lead shot for distance performance. Made a big impression with the other guys. We had been pretty disappointed with the performance of the Steel Shot since it has been introduced but WW levels out the playing field.

"Winter is upon us in Saskatchewan and waterfowl season is all but done. After a season of trying the SWAT choke tube you sent me for my Benelli Super Black Eagle, I must say that I am totally impressed. The first day I used the choke tube I was on a morning snow goose shoot over decoys and harvested 20 snow geese. That afternoon, I moved to a duck slough and shot a limit of 8 birds. All of my birds fell stone dead. There were no cripples. There was no chasing of downed birds. It was awesome!!! When birds were hit, they were hammered with bone crushing blows. It was like they flew into an invisible wall. One moment they were flying, the next moment they were dead and on their way to the ground. The choke tube not only performed on snows and ducks, it also proved lethal on big Canadas. I was also impressed how SWAT choke tube worked equally well with both small and large shot sizes and with all types of non-toxic shot. Awesome product!"

"A BIG thanks Lorie for gettin' my tubes to me so quickly. I was killin' the green in short order with the SWAT 12 in my SBE II this past weekend. I was foldin' 'em DEAD RIGHT THERE with 1 shot kills from in yo' face to about 30 yards with handloaded 3 1/2" #5 (1500 fps).
I haven't shot the Supreme 12 yet, but if it is 1/2 as good as the SWAT 12 you'll hear no complaint's from me. Thanks again for gettin' the tubes to me so quickly. DEAD RIGHT THERE!!!"

"I can give no less than my full and sincere endorsement to the SWAT12. We were field hunting yesterday, just minutes after I received the SWAT in the mail. (Thank you for the Prompt and Courteous Service). I was hunting with two friends who are long time avid hunters. We had mallards in the decoys from 10-35 yard, and we could not believe the killing power of the SWAT12. I was watching my friends hit the birds with their Benelli SBE II's (one modified, one improved cylinder #4 steel 1500fps Winchester Xpert 3"), and they would knock them around but not kill them all the time. Of the 12 mallards we brought down, I shot 4 of them. (4 shots! and I shot cleanup on a couple of their birds). Direct quote from my friend "For the love of God, what are you shooting? Lead? or did you finally take a shooting lesson?" but I was shooting #4 steel same as them and no lessons! They asked to try my gun after I limited out, and I gladly obliged. As I watched my friends finish out their limits with the SWAT, I was amazed by the increase in killing power. The ducks would literally be pushed backwards in the air, and come down STONE DEAD! Just toward the end of the hunt one of my buddies had my gun and shot a lone goose. I paced it off......because no one would believe it .....43 yds, with #4 Steel. amazing. Could have been a luck shot, but it definitely came down dead!"

"The WW SWAT12 did it again!!!! Saturday was our duck season opener and let me tell you - the SWAT12 performed flawlessly. I shot four ducks in the morning...a black duck, two drake mallards, and a drake GWT - - 0 cripples!!!! We went out to a different spot in the evening and shot our woodies....although I came home with a bonus.... a BANDED drake woody!!! My first banded duck. The disappointing, yet fantastic, thing about the bird was that the pattern from the WW SWAT12 and the Winchester X-Pert Hi-Velocity, 3.5", 1 and 3/8 oz load of #3 damn near punched a hole in the bird!!!! So, no mount....but I can live with it!!! The band looks good on my lanyard!!!! Wad Wizard® tubes are a permanent fixture in my SBE II!!!!!"

"Thank-you very much for overnighting my tubes so that I would have them for a Saturday hunt. I have never had an aftermarket tube and after talking to you for a little while I went with the swat and supreme. I was amazed with the swat with quail! Everyone in my group was interested in my new chokes. All day I heard "that was a good shot." I cannot wait for duck season! I know that I will be carrying both chokes with me everytime and will have any type of situation covered. Thanks again!"

"Back in March '05 I bought a Wad Wizard Supreme and a SWAT 12 for a new Benelli. Just today I shot the Supreme for the first time (only second time I've fired the gun) at the local trap range and got a 19 out of 25. I realize that's not outstanding, but I'm not used to the gun yet. The range trapper remarked at how far away I was smoking the clays. I can hardly wait for dove season in September, but between now and then I'll be going
after many clays, both for trap and sporting clays. You make a great choke!"

"I just wanted to drop you a note to tell you about my recent turkey success using my Wad Wizard® Supreme. I killed a Washington turkey the other night as part of a double with one of my buddies. The Wad Wizard stopped him in his tracks at 35 yards. He had a 8 1/2 beard. Thank you for making such a quality product that allows me to be 100% confident that when I pull the trigger at what I'm aiming at is going to go down. It was a great hunt and my Wad Wizard was an important part of it. Thanks again.

"Shooting my Benelli 20 gauge with the Wad Wizard Choke Tube at 40 yards, shooting # 4 Hevishot gave me my best patterns. 10 pellets in the kill zone for a wild turkey. I would not recommend shooting a further distance, but it will kill a turkey at 41 yards, which I did - my best bird yet! 12 1/8" beard, 1 3/8" spurs, weighed 20.35 pounds. Wow! Thank you, Wad Wizard, Benelli and # 4 Hevishot! The story gets better. I shot a second bird to fill my and mistakenly judged the distance to be 40 yards. I marched my steps off to retrieve the bird and was astonished to find I had made a 60 yard shot - confirmed by laser range finder. Truly a lucky shot, but still had the energy to harvest the bird. Wowww! The story gets better yet - when examining the bird he had 4 beards - 1 1/8" spurs and weighed 18.9 pounds. I've placed the turkey in the local contest and so far am winning. I am also placing the turkey in the atypical category for the N.C. State contest. Thank you for your patience with all my questions prior to the purchase of the Wad Wizard. I'm a very happy customer!"

"Just a quick note to say how pleased I am with my Supreme. I took it to hunt everything from canadas, snows, ducks and also crows. I dropped everything dead I hit.. HARD. Can't wait to use it turkey hunting! ps. customer service also awesome!

"Just wanted to drop you a line to tell you how happy I am with your choke tubes. I used to use that "other brand" (patternmaster) in my old gun. Then I bought a new Browning BPS and the salesman said "try this tube". I said OK and bought it. I've loved it ever since! That thing is awesome! I've never used a choke tube like that before. That think knocks geese dead!!!!!!!!!! I'm leaving next week for a spring snow goose hunt. I will be in contact with you when I get back. I'll let you know how hard we whacked 'em!! This choke tube really knocks 'em stiff. Wad Wizard is the greatest! Keep up the good work and the great products!!"

"First let me start out by saying that I have used a couple of your choke tubes for two full seasons now. I am very impressed with your choke tubes and the results they have proven to offer...The combination of Wad Wizard and Hevi shot absolutely crush the birds. When I pull up on a goose now, I know before I pull the trigger that it's dead. This comes in very handy when I am guiding. Now I can reach out and clean up the clients cripples from the blind, instead of chasing them all over the field. The supreme is also a deadly tube for crippled divers. As I'm sure you know, it is very difficult to finish off a wounded diver on the water. That is no longer true when I have the Supreme tube in my Benelli. The tight, dense pattern that it throws is just the ticket for finishing these birds off while sparing the decoys. I will not even consider hunting now without one of these Wad Wizard choke tubes in my shotgun. I am convinced that they are the best product of their kind on the market today. I have helped a few of my friends see the light, they are selling their PM's and buying your tubes."

"I ordered two SWAT tubes, one for my Dad and one for me. We have now shot several pheasants with these tubes. In most common ranges of about 25-40 yards the birds hit the ground dead. This was not real impressive because this can be done with regular chokes. There have a been a few shots that have made me a believer in this choke tube. I shot a rooster the other day at about 45 yards. When the bird was hit a lot of feathers were blown off the bird, like when a rooster is hit in the center of a pattern at maybe only 30 yards, or like when two people shoot the same bird. This bird was hammered. Later I shot another bird at about 50 yards. It did not blow a bunch of feathers off, but it did hit the ground dead, it simply folded up. The other piece of information you should know is these birds were shot with AAs, 1 oz. of 7 1/2 shot in what WW calls a super light load. If I did not know better I would never have thought this possible. This tube works as advertised. I will be telling others."

"I ordered the choke tube set from you last week and I want to thank you for a wonderful product. This was our last weekend for geese. Three yesterday and three today with 6 shots total. They all dropped like rocks. I didn't get a chance to try the SWAT tube, so that will have to wait for next year. The wads were all on the ground within 25 yards, so the wad stoppers do the job. Again, I want to thank you for a great product."

"Just wanted to say thanks for a great product. I won a Supreme 12 choke tube at the Utah state sporting clays championship. I didn't quite know what to expect, but after a trip to the range I was shocked! Shooting a 46/50 with ranges varying from in your face to 50 yds. everything turned to dust! I also took it on a trip to hunt blue grouse, at 25 yds. it nearly decapitated the birds. My buddy borrowed it for the duck opener and I had to show up on his doorstep to get it back. I plan to equip all my shotguns with these incredible tubes."

"Used a Wad Wizard Supreme in a Beretta Xtrema to take these NY State Canada geese. They where shot over decoys with 3.5in #1 Win Drylok. I absolutely love this choke. Out of our group, 2 of use use Wad Wizard Supremes in the same set up, and you can really tell when the 2 of us shoot what birds we are shooting at. The Wad Wizard Supreme really puts the smack down on them geese!!!! Also thanks for the great customer service."

" I just wanted to say thank you so much for the Wad Wizard tubes. I used the SWAT12 for the first time on Saturday (10/9) for the PA duck season opener. All I can say is.....AWESOME. The first 4 or 5 shots I took...resulted in 4 or 5 DEAD ducks. We had a great evening hunt. There were six of us and we ended up with 31 birds....a mix of mallards, teal (green and blue wing), and woodies. I would have to say that I shot better and more consistent on Saturday than I ever have. I would have to attribute a lot of it the SWAT12!!! When you labeled the tube the "SWAT12"...I can see why - it SWATs ducks....dead!!!! Thank you again!"
(10/04) Mark S., PA |

"I bought a Wad Wizard from you guys to use in my Benelli Nova, I was skeptical about buying after market choke tubes, I was so wrong. I made shots on geese that were too afraid to land in our spread. Even my buddies I was hunting with were amazed with the shots I was making. Let me tell you one thing, this was the best investment I have made in a long time for goose hunting."
(9/2004) Casey B., VA |

"3 of my buddies and I hunted this morning and we killed 20 Giants honkers and 13 snows.There is only 3 words to describe the SWAT12 : TOO MUCH EFFECTIVE!!! I was shooting Winchester Supreme 3" 1 1/4 of # 2's and it was like I had a 10 gauge!!! Incredible and really magical! Simply deadly..."
