Which choke is recommended for mid-range shots, generally between 30 to 40 yards?

Full choke
Modified choke
Cylinder bore choke
Improved cylinder choke

The correct answer is: Modified choke

The modified choke is designed specifically for mid-range shooting, typically effective at distances of 30 to 40 yards. This choke tightens the shot pattern compared to cylinder bore and improved cylinder chokes, allowing for more focused shot distribution. This concentration of shot is advantageous for taking down game at these distances, providing a balance between spread and precision. In contrast, a full choke is more suited for longer-range shots due to its extremely tight pattern, which is less effective at mid-range. The cylinder bore choke offers the widest shot spread, making it ideal for short distances but not for mid-range effectiveness. The improved cylinder choke falls between modified and cylinder bore, but still does not provide the precision necessary for reliably hitting targets at 30 to 40 yards as effectively as the modified choke does.
