    Seized Choke

    Has anyone ever had a seized choke in a barrel? I only use oil on mine but see choke grease, thinking about maybe bumping up to using Permatex Anti-Seize especially in the off season when sitting in safe.

    Don't use oil. Oil evaporates and carbonizes because of heat and friction and become hardened gunk. Choke grease and anti seize are a better solution.

      Just take the choke tube out before you store it! Quality grease is your friend if you want to keep it on as said above. I had a choke tube seize in my 1187 bbl. Nothing worked to even budge it. A buddy suggested using Kroil on it which worked after about 3 days of sitting/ soaking in.

          A little dab of anti - seize would probably work just fine too. It's designed just for keeping threads from seizing.

            Anti Seize is one of the best things ever invented. Kroil is the best thing ever invented for when you forget to use anti seize.

              Yeah I adhere to the two principles - 1) use grease not oil, and 2) remove the chokes after use. Saves a lot of head aches.

                    I use anti seize for my chokes and swear by it. Never had a problem.
