I'm shooting a 870 super mag with a hevi 13 choke. I got tired of paying 5 dollars per shell for hevi, so i went to Long beards and my pattern is just OK. So Iv been doing a lot of research on choke tubes and I found Tru Lock or Carlson to be my 2 picks because they made their tubes specifically for the Winchester Long beards. They both compare pretty closely, but I'm Leaning more towards the Tru Lock because they have made a tube designed for each shot size. Winchester® Long Beard™ XR™ #4 Constriction 0.065. Winchester® Long Beard™ XR™ #5 Constriction 0.070. I want to shoot 4's but i'm leaning towards 5's for more pellets. What are your thoughts?

I would go with the 5's myself , you will have a little more pellet count and it will do anything the 4's would do...I use Trulock and they are great chokes and if for some reason your unhappy with the choke they will work with you...As far as ported or non ported ..i just like non ported chokes....
