Question on choke markings
« on: July 31, 2004, 11:59:57 AM »
Can someone let me know how to determine the choke when the markings are only asterisks? I just picked up a Savage 720 and the choke marking is **.

Generally speaking one * is full, 2 ** is modified, 3 *** Improved cylinder, 4 **** is cylinder.

Thiokol is the correct spelling. It's from the Greek and was the trade name for the first synthetic rubber ever manufactured by the Thiokol Corporation.
