The shot is buffered and plated to minimize deformation of the shot that causes a loss of accuracy out at range as well. The cup is designed to hold the shot group together out at ranges beyond standard shot. We are seeing typing paper size patterns at 50 yards.įrom what I understand of it, Federal designed the Flightcontrol cup to be shot out of guns with no choke. All of the deer hunters I know here in the Deep South woods are using it with IC tubes. I use IC because I don't use any of the buffered, controlled cup rounds, I use standard plated buck and foster slug loads.Ĭan you point me to the Federal recommendation for cylinder bore choke for FliteControl? Everyone I know that has tested it is using IC. With the development of performance loads more defensive shotguns are manufactured cylinder bore only. IC chokes were meant to optimize performance between standard shot loads and foster slugs. Restricted bore police guns were meant to tighten pattern performance on standard shot loads as was the practice of back boring. ![]() Like RAS says, flight control cups are a fairly recent development. Restricting the bore causes poorer performance. You should not use a tighter choke with this.įederal recommends cylinder bore for flight control loads. ![]() Federal FliteControl 9 pellet, full power 00B from Remington 22" IC barrel at likely max HD distance, 15 yards.
