Description
The Primos Tight Wad is built for one job and it does it well: putting a dense, even wad of pellets on a gobbler's head at real turkey range. It's cut for the Accu-Mag thread pattern, so it drops straight into a Mossberg 835 or 935 with that 10-gauge overbored barrel. The .690 constriction is dialed in for those guns, giving you meaningful squeeze without over-choking a bore that already runs wider than a standard 12 gauge.
What the Tight Wad Does at 40 Yards
This choke throws patterns that pack pellets tightly into a 30-inch circle at 40 yards, which is exactly the window where most birds get killed. The extended, ported design strips the wad off the shot column and helps settle things down, so you get fewer flyers and a bit less muzzle jump when that 3.5-inch magnum touches off. It runs great with lead, copper-plated lead, and HEVI-Shot, giving you room to test a few loads and let your gun tell you what it likes.
Built to Last a Few Seasons
Each Tight Wad tube is CNC-milled from chrome-alloy steel with a black finish, so it holds up to weather and repeated trips in and out of the barrel. Installation is tool-free. Clean your muzzle threads and the tube, add a little choke grease, and hand-tighten it in. That's it.
Getting the Most From Your Tight Wad
Every barrel patterns a little differently, so the smart move is to pattern this choke on paper before you head to the woods. Try a couple of shot sizes, usually 4s, 5s, or 6s, at 40 yards and see which load stacks the tightest count in the head-and-neck zone. Once you find that combo, you'll know your gun's true range. Keep in mind this tube is meant for lead, copper-plated lead, and HEVI-Shot loads, not steel.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Tight Wad fit my Mossberg 935 as well as the 835?
Yes. This tube is cut for the Mossberg Accu-Mag thread pattern, which is shared by the 835, the 935, and the Maverick 91. As long as your gun uses the Accu-Mag system, it threads right in.
Can I run steel shot through the Primos Tight Wad?
No, this choke is designed for lead, copper-plated lead, and HEVI-Shot loads only. Stick to those and it will pattern the way it's meant to. If you need a steel-rated tube, look for one specifically approved for steel shot.
Why is a .690 constriction right for the 835 and 935?
The Mossberg 835 and 935 use an overbored barrel that runs close to a 10-gauge diameter, so they don't need as tight a number as a standard 12 gauge to get the same squeeze. The .690 gives you strong turkey constriction on those wide bores without choking them down too far. Over-constricting an overbored Mossberg can actually blow patterns apart, so this tube is sized to match the gun.
What shot size patterns best with this choke?
Most turkey hunters get their best results with 4, 5, or 6 shot, but every barrel is a little different. The best approach is to pattern a couple of loads on paper at 40 yards and see which one puts the most pellets in the head-and-neck zone. Once you lock in a favorite load, you'll know your effective range.
