I have a mossberg 500 20ga turkey gun and was having trouble finding the exact trulock choke tube that is made to shoot federal HW #7's. Anyone know the model/part# that will fit my gun? Thanks !

FL-Boss

With that Mossberg... and Fed HW #7 .... Sumtoy is the best choke...

mozer67

Which constriction would work best in the sumtoy?

FL-Boss

I think it was a .562 ...not sure. Just call him and he will tell you which one you need.  All I can tell you is that if you are shooting that load in a Moss 20ga... his choke is the best.

Ok, thanks, I'll give him a call. Gonna try 20ga this year and I've heard with the proper load/choke they can be just as effective as a 12ga.

you may have to call them to find out,they will help ya out.

It will be plenty effective .  You will see 160+ .... I get up to 180 with mine. 20ga is just so much easier to carry IMO.  When I got my SA-20 mossberg.. I knew right then I was selling all my 12ga turkey guns I had.. I knew I would never carry them again.

Not sure I follow you there...the Trulock choke is a .560 and the Carlsons is a .575, one comes from Georgia and the other from Kansas.......please elaborate......

To answer the OP's question, you are looking for Trulock model # F7WIN20SPL.

Unless I have been told wrong by Scott Carlson...Trulock and Carlson are the same...but yes different dia are an option.

Not true....George Trulock is a friend of mine.  He does make a lot of other peoples chokes but Carlson's is not one of them unless he just started recently.

Anymore info on this?  I was looking at a Trulock Precision Hunter and Carlson XD .. they are both .575 and look identical?  Only difference I see is the Carlson costs about $10 bucks less.
Wondering if I should try the Trulock (already have the carlson)

I have heard of excellent patterns coming from the trulock .575 choke and the Feds but have not tried it myself. I've only shot the #7 choke at .560. Seems like there was a pattern pic or two floating around here, but i'm not sure...

This was shot at 55 degrees with a little of a crosswind. I was pleased with the Trulock Fed HW choke for hunting conditions.

FL-Boss

back to my original question.. does anyone know definitely is these are the same choke as the Carlson .575 ?
