Does it really make that much difference? I have an 835 and my son a Stoeger 3500 and they both came with a factory "turkey" choke tube and they seem to pattern fine. Is it worth the extra cash for a particular choke tube?

I would say if you were satisfied with the pattern there is no reason to get anything else. Now that might change if you switch ammo. If you are like me you always have to tinker with things.

Yep. The proof of the pudding is in the eating. If you like the patterns you're getting, there's no reason to change.

Just make sure your factory choke is approved for your load. I know some can be lead only if you choose something heavier than lead.

to me it's a never ending wormhole in pursuit of the "best" pattern.
there are so many variables to chase, i get confused.

I would seek an objective definition of "fine". Or at least a relative comparison.
A lot of things in life look fine until you compare them side by side and then you realize what's missing.
Start with how many pellets does it put in a 10" circle at 30/40 yards.
You may have a good pattern with those chokes or you may not. How do you know?

Can you get better patterns by shooting better chokes and shells yup is it worth it that is all up to the individual. If your already satisfied with what you got save the cash for gas to go hunting. You can put as much effort into patterning as can imagine from handloading TSS to buying several the HTL brands and not to mention many chokes run 70-100 bucks

Post up a pic of your pattern and you'll get some good answers.
But generally, aftermarket chokes will out perform factory ones.

Hornaday makes a shell that recommends imp cyl or mod. I've seen it shot with a stock mod. Choke and it patterned awesome.

The stock turkey choke with the 835 is really hard to beat IMO.

I have patterned alot of chokes against my factory choke. The factory Remington superfull throughs a nice even tight pattern. But it is only rated for lead.
