Carlson's choke tubes

[Andy54Hawken]

Went to a gun show yesterday , had a great time looking at different guns and the like.
I have been looking for a 20 gauge shotgun that could use steel shot , should that ever be a issue for upland / grouse hunting.

I found a like new ( Just a bit of stock rash ) 1988 vintage Mossberg 500C with a 24 inch barrel.
Got the gun , took it home , took it apart and cleaned it ( not that it needed it...clean and looks like it ain't been shot much )
Found it had a Full choke tube installed.

After some research...I found Carlson's Choke tubes...read some online reviews...and ordered a Improved Cylinder and a Modified choke.
The various online reviews were positive....I was hoping for some reviews from folks here on the forum...as I trust most of y'all more than some random "review / reviewer".
Thanks.
Andy

Carlson's Light Mod is the best, at least for my Benelli 20ga.

i looked at and thought about a light Modified....but have no experience with that choke...
I went with the chokes that I knew / have experience with.

Glad to hear that it works well for you....may get one of those in the future.

That's the only brand I use. I've got a slew of them I've bought over the years and found they are very consistent.

Every blaster I own (and have owned) has had a Carlson's choke. They aren't the fanciest, but they are consistent and priced reasonably.

I use their waterfowler pack for blasting aerial immigrant fowl.

Thanks fella's.....good to know that they do work well.
The Improved Cylinder choke came today....need to get out and pattern it....then the best....go hunting....

I did Not know that Mossy Model was a front stuffer

Hmmmm....I'm hip...No matter how much powder and shot I pour down the barrel it just keeps fallin' out the action....

I have some Carlson's chokes for my 12 gauge SLP. They work quite well and were not that expensive either.
