Picked up a Ventilator Choke tube. Heard good things about them. I will be trying it in my Remington Special Purpose Turkey with a 21 inch barrel.I have a few questions about this tube, and welcome any feedback you have on suggested loads for this set up. Can you use with Winchester Long beards or Extended Range? Is the constriction .650? Finally, does it like 4's, 5's, 6's or smaller shot? Thanks much for your suggestions.....
If I remember correctly it is a .655. Should shoot smaller shot sizes better being that tight and may even shoot a lighter payload better as well.
Hopefully someone with some experience shooting one chimes in.

Dtrkyman remembers correctly .655, you can find some other information on it if you do an internet search.

Amen my friend, a great guy with a whole lotta knowledge......
The choke is .655 inch. I have mine installed in a Rem 870 with a 21" RC barrel with rifle sights. I shoot vintage Federal "Premium" 3" Magnum 2 oz. of copperplated 7 1/2 shot! The results are awesome. Shoots very tight patterns! I can't say how other loads may perform as I stopped testing after shooting those old Federals.
