Description

Turkey hunting comes down to one thing when the bird is hung up out there: how many pellets you can stack in the kill zone. Carlson's designed this Long Beard choke specifically around Winchester's Long Beard XR ammunition, tuning the constriction and parallel section to work with the shot-hardening tech in those shells. The result is a tighter core and more even spread than you'll get from a factory turkey tube, which matters a whole lot when a gobbler is holding at the edge of range.

What Sets the Long Beard Choke Apart

This is a .568 constriction tube built from 17-4 stainless steel with a black finish, so it holds up to hard use and cleans up easy. The extended, ported body does two jobs at once. The porting bleeds off gas to take some of the sting out of those stout turkey loads, and the longer parallel section gives the shot column more time to settle before it leaves the barrel. Paired with Winchester Long Beard XR, the setup is known to average around 150 pellets in a 10-inch circle at 40 yards with 3-inch #6 shot, which is serious pattern density for a 20 gauge.

Fit and Load Notes for the 20 Gauge Long Beard

This version threads into 20 gauge shotguns cut for the Winchester/Browning Invector pattern, which covers a big chunk of popular pumps and autos. It's a lead-shot tube at heart and pairs best with the Long Beard XR loads it was engineered around, though it also handles other lead and non-tox options. Keep steel shot to size #4 or smaller through it.

Backed for the Long Haul

Every Carlson's tube is made in the USA and carries a lifetime warranty, so this is one of those pieces of gear you buy once and forget about. For turkey hunters running a 20 gauge who want reach without stepping up to a bigger gun, this choke is a proven way to get there. Hunters running these on multiple guns tend to come back for more, and the pattern boards back up why.

Frequently Asked Questions

What loads work best in the Long Beard turkey choke?

It was engineered specifically around Winchester's Long Beard XR turkey ammunition, which is where you'll see the tightest, densest patterns. Paired with 3-inch #6 Long Beard XR, it's known to average roughly 150 pellets in a 10-inch circle at 40 yards. It also handles other lead and non-tox loads, so you have room to experiment on the pattern board.

Will this choke fit my 20 gauge shotgun?

This tube is threaded for the Winchester/Browning Invector pattern, which covers a lot of common 20 gauge pumps and semi-autos. If your barrel is marked Invector or Win Choke, you're good to go. When in doubt, check your barrel markings or owner's manual before ordering.

Can I run steel shot through the Long Beard choke?

It's a lead-focused turkey tube built for maximum pattern density, and it also works with non-tox options like Bismuth, Hevi-Shot, and tungsten. If you do shoot steel, keep it to size #4 or smaller. For turkey work, most hunters stick with the lead Long Beard XR loads anyway.

Why is this choke ported?

The porting vents gas at the muzzle, which helps tame the recoil that comes with heavy turkey loads. It also plays a role in settling the shot column for a more consistent pattern. The extended body gives that shot column extra room to organize before it clears the barrel.
