Carlson's Long Beard Turkey Ported Choke Tube for 12 ga Benelli Crio/Crio Plus .665

The Carlson's Long Beard Turkey Ported Choke Tube for 12 gauge Benelli Crio/Crio Plus (.665 diameter) is a specialized shotgun choke designed to optimize patterns with Winchester Long Beard turkey ammunition. This choke tube pairs with Winchester's Shot-Lok technology to deliver the tightest, densest pellet patterns available for extended effective range on wild turkey. The ported design reduces recoil while maintaining the consistency needed for clean kills at distance.

Built with .665-inch diameter for direct compatibility with Benelli Crio and Crio Plus shotguns, this choke tube is engineered specifically for the ballistic envelope of Winchester Long Beard loads. The ported construction allows gases to escape at the muzzle, which manages recoil impulse during back-to-back shooting situations typical in turkey hunting. Carlson's precision manufacturing ensures consistent bore diameter and internal geometry that optimizes pellet compression and shot column integrity downrange.

This choke is purpose-built for turkey hunters using modern ammunition platforms who demand sub-MOA pattern density at 40+ yards. Benelli Crio and Crio Plus owners who run Winchester Long Beard loads will see measurable improvement in pattern consistency compared to factory or multi-purpose chokes. The combination of specialized choke geometry and ported design makes this a dedicated tool for serious turkey hunters prioritizing penetration and pattern uniformity in varying conditions.

Replacement choke tubes for shotgun hunting applications are often overlooked, yet they directly influence ballistic performance and shot placement reliability. Selecting a choke matched to both your platform (Benelli Crio/Crio Plus) and your ammunition (Winchester Long Beard) removes variables and ensures the performance you're paying for in premium turkey loads reaches the target consistently.
