Carlson’s Long Beard XR Choke Tube – Browning Invector DS, 12 Gauge, .665

The Carlson’s Long Beard XR Choke Tube (brand part number 70180) threads into the Invector DS pattern found on Browning 12 gauge shotguns and is purpose-built around Winchester’s Longbeard XR turkey load, rather than being a general-purpose turkey choke pressed into service. Carlson’s machines the extended tube from 17-4 stainless steel with a matte black finish and cuts a .665 Turkey constriction, then extends the parallel section 25% longer than a standard choke to throw a tighter, denser pattern at real turkey range. Carlson’s proprietary Shot-Lok technology works alongside that extra parallel length to reduce pellet deformation and shorten the shot string, meaning fewer stray flyers outside the main pattern. This tube is built for lead Longbeard XR loads only and should not be run with steel shot.
