What is different about a skeet barrell and a regular barrelon a shotgun?
Mainly the degree of choke, or constriction at the muzzle. a skeet choke is the smallest degree of constriction next to no choke at all (cylinder bore). Hunting shotguns may be full choke, modified, or some other combination. The greater the degree of constriction, the greater percentage of pellets kept in a small circle.
