Carlson's Long Beard Turkey Choke, model 70110, is a ported 12 gauge turkey tube designed to make the most of Winchester Long Beard ammunition and its Shot-Lok technology. That combination keeps the lead shot rounder as it leaves the barrel, and rounder shot flies straighter, so you end up with denser, more consistent patterns downrange. If you've been running a factory full choke and wishing for a little more reach, this is the kind of upgrade that shows up plainly on a pattern board.
The tube is machined from 17-4 stainless steel, which handles the heat and pressure of heavy turkey loads without complaint and holds up season after season. The porting near the muzzle helps take some of the sting out of those stout 3-inch and 3.5-inch loads, which anyone who's touched off a magnum turkey shell at a roosted bird will appreciate. Carlson's also backs the whole thing with a lifetime warranty, so if something ever goes wrong you send it back and they take care of you.
Model 70110 is cut for the Remington (Rem Choke) thread pattern, so it drops into Remington 870, 1100, 11-87 and other shotguns that share those threads. It's built specifically around the Winchester Long Beard XR line, and that's where it really sings, though plenty of folks pattern it with other lead turkey loads too. One thing to keep in mind: this is a lead turkey tube, so keep steel shot no larger than #4 through it and skip slugs and buckshot entirely.
The honest truth with any turkey choke is that no two guns pattern the same, so once it's installed, head to the range and shoot a few patterns at 40 yards with the loads you plan to hunt. Dial in your point of aim and you'll know exactly what your setup can do before a longbeard ever struts into range.
This model is cut for the Remington (Rem Choke) thread pattern, so it fits Remington 870, 1100, 11-87 and other shotguns that use those same threads. Before ordering, check that your barrel is threaded for Rem Choke rather than Invector, Invector Plus, or Beretta/Benelli Mobil, since Carlson's makes separate Long Beard tubes for each of those systems. When in doubt, look for the choke system stamped on your barrel.
It's designed and constricted specifically for Winchester Long Beard XR loads with Shot-Lok technology, and that pairing gives you the tightest patterns. That said, plenty of hunters run other lead turkey loads through it with good results. The only way to know for sure is to pattern your gun with a few different loads and see which one your barrel likes best.
You can run steel no larger than #4 through it, but that's the limit for this tube. Keep slugs, sabots, rifled slugs, and buckshot out of it entirely, since a tight turkey constriction isn't built for those projectiles. For turkeys, lead loads like the Winchester Long Beard line are what this choke was made for anyway.
The porting near the muzzle helps bleed off gas and take some of the recoil edge off heavy turkey loads. Anyone who's fired a 3.5-inch magnum shell knows those loads kick hard, and the porting makes follow-up more comfortable. It also helps keep the pattern settling consistently shot to shot.
