Description
Carlson's built the Cremator line around a taper design they call Triple Shot Technology, and once you see what it's doing inside the tube, it makes a lot of sense. Instead of squeezing shot down to its final constriction all at once, three graduated rings ease the transition in steps. That gentler path means fewer pellets get knocked out of round on the way out, which shows up downrange as tighter, more even patterns with less spray outside your kill zone.
Cremator Constrictions Built for the Invector DS
This set includes a mid range and long range tube, both machined to drop into the Browning Invector DS system found on guns like the A5 and 725 Citori. Mid range is the tube most guys leave in for everyday duck and goose work inside 40 yards, while the long range tube earns its keep once birds start flaring out past that mark and you need a little more reach without giving up pattern density.
Ported for Recoil Control
Both tubes in this Cremator 2-pack are ported, which vents gas ahead of the shot column to help settle the muzzle down between shots. That means less bounce after the trigger breaks and a quicker recovery if a second bird commits. Add in the extended design with its longer parallel section, and you get a tube that runs cleaner patterns than a standard flush choke while still coming out by hand, no wrench wrestling required, though one is included anyway.
Steel Shot Ready, No Restrictions
There's no size or velocity limit on steel shot with any Cremator constriction, so you can run whatever load your gun likes best without worrying about voiding anything or beating up the tube. Every Cremator tube is machined from heat-treated 17-4 stainless steel right here in the US and backed by Carlson's lifetime warranty, so this is a set you buy once and forget about until the next duck season rolls around.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the mid range and long range chokes in this Cremator pack?
The mid range tube is built for closer decoying birds, generally out to around 40 yards, while the long range tube tightens things up for shots beyond that. Both use the same Triple Shot Technology taper, so you're not giving up pattern quality by choosing one over the other, just adjusting for distance.
Can I shoot steel shot through these Cremator choke tubes?
Yes, Carlson's rates the Cremator series for steel shot with no size or speed restrictions in either constriction. That makes this pack a solid all-around choice for duck and goose loads without having to second guess what you're feeding it.
Will these chokes fit my Browning shotgun?
These tubes are machined specifically for the Browning Invector DS thread pattern, which covers guns like the A5 and 725 Citori. If your shotgun uses a different Invector system, such as Invector Plus, you'll want a different Carlson's tube since the threads aren't interchangeable.
Do I need any special tools to swap these choke tubes in and out?
A wrench is included with the pack, but the extended design of the Cremator tubes makes them easy to hand tighten and loosen in the field. That comes in handy when you're switching constrictions between decoy setups and pass shooting without digging through your gear bag.
