We formulate a stochastic gauge fixing method to study the gauge dependence of the Abelian projection. We consider a gauge which interpolates between the maximal Abelian gauge and no gauge fixing. We have found that Abelian dominance for the heavy quark potential holds even in a gauge which is far from maximally Abelian one. The heavy quark potentials from monopole and photon contribution are calculated at several values of the gauge parameter, and the former part shows always the confinement behavior.
