Description
Carlson's built the Cremator line for one job: putting more pellets on target when the birds are working. This 2-pack gives you a mid-range and a long-range constriction, both ported, so you can match your choke to how the ducks and geese are decoying that morning. Everything is machined from heat-treated 17-4 stainless steel with a matte black finish, and it drops right into Winchester Invector style threads.
What Triple Shot Technology Does in the Cremator
The heart of these tubes is Carlson's TST, a set of three graduated rings in the taper section that ease the shot from your bore to the final constriction instead of slamming it into one abrupt step. That gentler transition means less pellet deformation, fewer flyers, and tighter, more even patterns. It plays nice with just about anything you'd load for waterfowl, including lead, steel, Bismuth, and the harder-hitting stuff like Hevi-Shot and TSS.
Ported Design and the Extended Build
The porting on these Cremator tubes vents gas up top to help tame muzzle jump, which keeps you settled for that second and third shot on a flock that keeps circling. You also get the perks of an extended choke, with roughly a 25 percent longer parallel section for denser patterns, plus wrench-less hand installation, quick swaps in the field, and a bit of muzzle protection when you're leaning the gun in the blind.
Matching the Two Constrictions to Your Hunt
Think of the mid-range tube as your decoy-to-medium gun, right in the sweet spot for birds working from about 20 to 40 yards. The long-range tube reaches out past 40 when they hang up and won't commit. Carlson's backs the whole Cremator series with a lifetime warranty, and like the rest of their tubes, these are made in the USA.

Frequently Asked Questions
What shotguns do these Cremator ported choke tubes fit?
This 2-pack is threaded for the Winchester Invector choke system in 12 gauge. That same thread pattern is shared by a number of Browning Invector and Mossberg 500 series barrels, so plenty of common waterfowl guns will take these tubes. If you're unsure what your barrel is threaded for, check your owner's manual or the markings near the muzzle before ordering.
What's the difference between the mid-range and long-range tube in this Cremator set?
The mid-range constriction is your bread and butter for birds working the decoys, roughly 20 to 40 yards out. The long-range tube tightens things up for shots past 40 yards when the birds hang back. Having both in one pack lets you match the choke to the day instead of settling for a compromise.
Can I run steel shot through the Cremator ported tubes?
Yes, the Cremator series is built to handle steel with no size or speed restrictions in these constrictions, which is exactly what you want for waterfowl. They also work with lead, Bismuth, Hevi-Shot, and TSS loads. Just stick to waterfowl and target loads rather than slugs or buckshot.
Do the ported Cremator chokes really cut down on recoil?
The porting vents gas out the top of the tube, which helps knock down muzzle jump so your barrel stays flatter shot to shot. That makes staying on a flock for follow-up shots a bit easier. You'll notice a little more muzzle blast to the sides, which is normal for any ported choke.
