The Beretta Optima-Choke HP Ported 12 Gauge Improved Cylinder Extended 0.75-Inch Choke Tube (Beretta part number C6A469) is a go-to constriction for close-flushing upland birds and the more open sporting clays stations, with muzzle porting added to help manage recoil. Ports along the tube body bleed propellant gas as the shot exits, tempering muzzle rise for a flatter, faster recovery between shots. High-strength steel construction gives the tube significant corrosion resistance and the durability to withstand steel shot without pitting. The 0.75-inch extension makes the installed constriction easy to identify at a glance.
