When a longbeard hangs up at 40 yards, the difference between a clean kill and a clean miss usually comes down to what's in the end of your barrel. Carlson's Extended Turkey Choke Tube is built to solve exactly that problem, wringing your favorite turkey load down into a tight, even pattern that puts pellets where they need to go. It's cut for Retay shotguns running the MaraPro choke system and carries a .665 constriction, right in the sweet spot for dense turkey patterns.
The body is machined from 17-4 heat-treated stainless steel, which is the real reason to reach for a Carlson's over a bargain tube. A lot of factory chokes use softer stainless that struggles with heavy buffered turkey shells, and this one is made to take that punishment shot after shot without eroding. It extends roughly an inch past the muzzle and uses a 1.050-inch parallel section, the internal geometry that does the heavy lifting when it comes to shaping a consistent pattern. It plays well with copper-plated, buffered lead, nickel, bismuth, and tungsten-style loads, so you've got room to experiment with whatever shoots best out of your gun.
Here's the part folks skip and shouldn't: pattern before you hunt. Every gun, choke, and shell combo throws a different pattern, so set up a target at 40 yards, draw a 10-inch circle, and shoot the exact shells you plan to carry. Most hunters aim for around 100 pellets in that circle, and dialing it in ahead of season tells you your true effective range and whether your point of impact matches point of aim. One thing worth knowing: keep steel shot larger than #4 out of a turkey choke, since the tight constriction isn't built for it.
Made in the USA and backed by Carlson's lifetime warranty, this is a straightforward upgrade for anyone chasing spring toms with a Retay 12 gauge.
This specific tube (part 17639) is cut for the MaraPro choke system found on most Retay 12 gauge shotguns. Always confirm your barrel uses the Retay/MaraPro thread pattern before ordering, since choke threads are not universal across brands. If your Retay takes MaraPro chokes, this one drops right in.
It's designed to pattern copper-plated and buffered lead turkey loads, and it also handles nickel, bismuth, Hevi-Shot, and tungsten-style shells. Carlson's sees the best pattern performance with #4, #5, and #6 shot. Steel shot larger than #4 should never be run through a turkey choke because of the tight constriction.
Yes, and it's the single most important thing you can do before season. Every gun, choke, and shell combination patterns differently, so shoot your exact hunting loads at 40 yards into a 10-inch circle to see what you're working with. Most hunters look for around 100 pellets in that circle and use the results to confirm point of impact and effective range.
Carlson's uses corrosion-resistant 17-4 heat-treated stainless, which stands up to heavy buffered turkey shotshells far better than the softer stainless found in many factory tubes. That durability means it holds up shot after shot and resists erosion at the business end. It also comes backed by a lifetime warranty and is made in the USA.
