Abstract: Disclosed herein is a shotgun choke with integral wad-stopping feature for use with an existing shotgun. The choke generally comprises a hollow cylinder having (an) a coupling for securing it to the muzzle end such as an external series of screw threads proximate one end for screw-insertion to the muzzle end of an existing shotgun, and an internal channel defined by an overall taper running from the inserted end to the output end to constrict shotgun pellets passing there through. The wad-stopping feature is accomplished with a series of raised internal projections or steps (raised from the internal walls of the channel), the projections being spaced throughout the tapered channel to retard and separate a traveling wad from the shot when passing there through.
