Yes, I have several ferrite core 2.5 mH chokes here, including the Hammond one you mention. There's a significant difference in high frequency performance of the pi wound on ceramic form versus the smaller pi-wound over ferrite and that's one of the things I'm hoping to illustrate in the article. Hence, I needed a genuine 2.5 mH "National Radio" style choke.

Their 2.5 mH is good for 160 mA, made by Hammond,
core material is ferrite, 3 pi-windings, diameter 0.469", price $3.95.

Another used-to-be-common part is a 2.5 mH RF choke, pi wound on a ceramic form. After a lengthy search, I found Hammond still makes these, only to learn that they were discontinued earlier this year. I managed to get one (at a price of $14) and it's good that I only needed one to use as a comparison reference for a QEX article I'm working on.
