Turkey hunting chokes are designed to increase pattern density at long range, but are they that much better than regular full chokes? This video tests a Carlson's extended ported sporting clays choke against a Carlson's extended turkey choke with four different kinds of turkey ammo to see what the average gain is when using the turkey choke. Please keep in mind every choke/gun/ammo combination will perform differently, the same combinations tested here may perform better or worse for you. ALWAYS TEST your ammo and choke tube before hunting.
Choke Tubes Tested:
• Carlson's Turkey Choke 0.670 Constriction -amzn.to/3D9uJ5P
• Carlson's Sporting Clays Choke Full 0.700 - amzn.to/3ID30M6

In this video I test these shotgun shells:
• Winchester Long Beard XR, 12 gauge, #4, 1.75oz, 1200 fps
• Winchester Super X Turkey, 12 gauge, #4, 1.875oz, 1210 fps
• Remington Nitro Turkey, 12 gauge, #5, 1.875oz, 1210 fps
• Fiocchi Golden Pheasant, 12 gauge, #6, 1.75oz, 1200 fps
Using these same loads I found some patterned better with a Carlson's Longbeard XR choke at .660 constriction than with the turkey church tested. But some loads also patterned worse with the .660 choke. The bottom line is that you MUST test your shotgun shells with your choke tube(s) until you find a good combination for turkey hunting. Always pattern test on paper before hunting. Special thanks to Carlson's for providing these chokes to test.
