The Carlsons CORE Close Range choke tube is built for the up-close work where a wide-open bore just spreads pellets too thin. With a #1 CR/IC (Close Range) constriction measuring .720, it keeps your shot column packed together for dense, hard-hitting patterns when birds flush at your feet or clays break right off the trap house. It threads into most Remington-pattern 12 gauge shotguns and runs the full range of shot materials, so you're not locked into one load.
Think flooded timber mallards, early-season teal, upland flushes, and skeet or close trap stations. Carlsons lists the sweet spot as roughly 5 to 20 yards with lead and 15 to 30 yards with steel, which lines up with how most folks actually shoot at these ranges. It handles shot sizes from BB all the way down to 10, and the CR/IC constriction is also the one Carlsons clears for slugs if you ever want to run a rifled or sabot load through it.
Carlsons has been machining and patterning choke tubes in the USA for over 30 years, and that testing background shows in how consistent these throw. The tube sits flush with the muzzle and carries the constriction laser marked right on the body, so there's no guessing which one you grabbed out of the case. It's compatible with lead, steel, bismuth, TSS, and Hevi-Shot, giving you the flexibility to match your choke to whatever's in the shell box.
Every Carlsons choke tube carries a lifetime warranty. If it ever gets damaged, you package it up and send it back for a replacement, which is a nice bit of peace of mind for a part that spends its life at the business end of a shotgun. Pattern it with your own gun and favorite load before you head out, and you'll know exactly what this tube is putting on target.
This tube uses the Rem Choke thread pattern, so it drops into most Remington-pattern 12 gauge shotguns. If your barrel takes standard Remington choke tubes, this one will thread right in. When in doubt, check your barrel markings or owner's manual to confirm the thread type before ordering.
Yes, this choke is cleared for steel along with lead, bismuth, TSS, and Hevi-Shot. Carlsons lists effective steel patterning in the 15 to 30 yard window, which is right where close-range waterfowl and teal work happens. As always, pattern it with your specific load to see how it performs in your gun.
It's built for tight, dense patterns up close. Carlsons rates it at roughly 5 to 20 yards with lead and 15 to 30 yards with steel, making it a solid pick for flooded timber, early-season birds, upland flushes, and closer clay stations. If you need reach past that, the CORE Mid-Range or Long-Range tubes step things out further.
The CR/IC constriction is the one Carlsons clears for slug use, so this Close Range tube can handle rifled or sabot slugs if you want to switch things up. That's not true of tighter constrictions, so it gives you a bit of extra versatility. Pattern and confirm point of impact with your slug load before hunting with it.
