Title: Carlson's turkey choke tubes?
Post by: GaryO on July 06, 2012, 06:49:09 PM
I am considering a Carlson's extended Turkey Super-Full .660 tube. What say you? Thanks...

I have several Carlson choke tubes and they are worth every Penny. You just have to find out what load they match up with. I noticed that Fleet Farm is starting to sell Carlson choke tubes.          Good Luck

.660 sounds like it's going in a Benelli or Beretta.  I have the .660 for my SBE II and while it took some doing, I got it to pattern the Win Ext Range 6's really well.  They're a bit more finicky about what loads they like, but when you find a match, you're golden!

I have a ported Carlson .665 for Ben. SN Win HV #4 lead would put 95-110 in the 10" @ 40

You'll be hard pressed to find a nicer bunch of folks who will assist you in any way to maximize your gun's performance w/ their tubes.

I have Carlson turkey tubes in four different shotguns and all pattern very well!  Do a little research to find the right constriction for the load you plan to shoot.

I think that Carlsons makes the Hevi13 choke nd I am very impressed with it.

The Heavy 13 choke is made by Carlsons and it shoots everything  good in my SBE, lead, extended range and Heavy Shot.
