The Carlson's Cremator 20 gauge choke tubes deliver tighter, more consistent patterns when you need them most—whether you're working ducks at 40 yards or pushing shots into the back forty. Built with Triple Shot Technology (TST), these ported mid-range and long-range tubes feature three graduated rings in the taper section that ease pellets from your bore to the final constriction with minimal deformation. The result: denser patterns, fewer flyers, and the reliable performance waterfowl hunters demand across the entire season.
These extended choke tubes bring real field advantages. The 25% longer parallel section tightens your shot column compared to flush-mount designs, while the ported configuration helps reduce felt recoil and muzzle rise—meaningful benefits when you're taking quick follow-up shots or shooting all morning. Installation is straightforward with wrench-less removal, and the extended design offers added muzzle protection. Steel shot of any size works fine with these tubes, giving you flexibility across different hunts and ammunition choices.
Built from heat-treated 17-4 stainless steel and manufactured in the U.S.A., the Cremator tubes are engineered to handle hard use. They're precision-machined to exact tolerances and backed by a lifetime warranty—confidence you can rely on when the birds are working.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use steel shot with these 20 gauge choke tubes?
Yes. The Carlson's Cremator chokes are compatible with all steel shot sizes in both the mid-range and long-range constrictions.
What does Triple Shot Technology do?
TST uses three graduated rings in the taper section to create a gradual transition from your shotgun's bore to the final constriction. This design reduces pellet deformation, cuts down on flyers, and produces denser, more predictable patterns—especially useful for waterfowl hunting.
How are these different from standard flush-mount chokes?
The Cremator tubes are extended chokes with a 25% longer parallel section, which tightens patterns compared to standard designs. The ported configuration also reduces recoil and muzzle rise. The extended tube adds muzzle protection, and installation requires no wrench for quick field changes.
Are these choke tubes made in the United States?
Yes. Carlson's Cremator choke tubes are precision-machined in the U.S.A. from heat-treated 17-4 stainless steel and include a lifetime warranty.
