Guys and Gals, I'm looking for a turkey choke for my Remington Versa Max. Any suggestions?

My choke recommendation, regardless of the gun, will always be Sumtoy. I’ve seen them perform phenomenally in so many guns, and shell combos, just don’t think you could go wrong.

I run one and went with a Carlson's Longbeard XR. Just make sure it's the correct choke for the versamax compared to other 870's. I run the same choke in my 870 turkey gun and it's threaded differently. Planned on saving a few bucks and swapping the choke out to whichever gun Inwas using, but that didnt work. I paired both my guns and chokes with Winchester Longbeard XRs in #6 and they shoot lights out as far out as I'd ever need to kill a bird.

Is the Carlson's tube ported or not ported? Does that really matter?

Also, what about a JEB's tube? Seems like a lot of money but is it worth the money?

All mentioned above are great, the Remingtons do like the primos jellyheads as a rule too

I shoot the Carlson’s longbeard XR as well. Ported. With longbeard XR #5s. I typically kill em under 20 yards but have poked them at 60 with that set up. Patterned out to 70. Great fun/choke/ammo combo.

Thanks for all the feed back. I've decided to purchase the Jeb's but I might purchase the Carlson's as well just to see what it'll do.

Thanks
