The Carlson's Benelli Crio/Crio Plus 12ga flush skeet choke tube gives you a straightforward way to dial in your shotgun's shot pattern for clay sports and hunting. Built from 17-4 PH stainless steel—one of the toughest, most corrosion-resistant materials in the choke tube business—this flush mount design handles lead-free and heavy buffered loads without backing down. Whether you're running a Benelli SBE II, Vinci, Ultra Light Sport, or Cordoba, this tube seats flush with the muzzle for a clean profile and easy swaps in the field.
Skeet constriction is the shot pattern you need when birds are working close to medium range. It opens your pattern fast and wide, which means more forgiving leads and tighter clusters on crossing shots. Carlson's choke tubes are engineered to let you fine-tune performance to your load and hunting or sport-shooting setup—no guesswork, just proven reliability.
Installation is simple: hand-tight is all it takes. The flush mount design means no threads or protrusions to snag on gear or catch your eye downrange. Comes in a clam pack ready to go into your shotgun bag or bench.
