Carlson's Choke Tubes 70125 Long Beard Turkey 70125 20 Gauge Turkey Ported 17-4 Stainless Steel

The Carlson's Long Beard Turkey Choke Tube 70125 is a ported stainless steel choke designed for 20-gauge shotguns built to maximize performance with modern turkey loads. This specialized choke tube delivers tighter, longer-range patterns than standard options, making it a smart choice for hunters who demand consistent, hard-hitting performance in the turkey woods.

The ported design helps manage recoil and gas flow, supporting the kind of dense, uniform shot column needed for clean, ethical kills at extended distances. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion and weathering—important when you're hunting in wet conditions or storing the tube between seasons. Carlson's precision manufacturing ensures consistent chamber fit and reliable performance across multiple outings.

If you're running Winchester Long Beard loads or similar premium turkey ammunition, this choke pairs well with shot that's engineered for tight patterns and deep penetration. Note that this tube is designed for lead shot only; steel shot larger than #4 is not recommended and may damage the choke or create unsafe pressures. As with any choke tube, proper installation and a secure fit in your shotgun's barrel are essential before firing.

Made in the USA and backed by Carlson's lifetime warranty, this 20-gauge choke is a lasting investment for anyone serious about turkey hunting accuracy and range.

What ammunition pairs well with this choke?
