Turkey Hunting Whether it's spring or fall doesn't matter to this bunch. Great tips on calling, bustin flocks, using blinds and more.

Default choke tube selection for turkey hunting

I know thereall kinds of different tubes to choose from but can someone tell me if there is one or two in particular that seems to work really good in almost every gun they have tried them in?
Rather than buy a bunch and try to see what patterns better than the other I would like to get the opinion from the ones that have already done the leg work.
I have in the past only used the undertaker turkey tube and just a normal full factory choke tube.
Thanks for any input here. It is appreciated.

Indian Creek, and Pure Gold have been consistent performers in a multitude of guns for me.

For a cheap choke my Primos Tightwad had patterned well in my Mossbergs. they cost about $20.00 and was a great improvement over the factory choke.

Love my Comp-N-Chok xxx full. But you wanna make sure and hold on the target cause it throws a tight pattern.

I think a very consistant and overlooked choke is the HS STruT Undertaker. Shoots alot of loads well. I killed a bird this year at 45yards with it.

It mostly depends on the barrel and load you're using.Some shells will shoot tighter more evenly dispersed patterns in a full choke than an extra full.Some will shoot higher or lower or left/right of where you're aiming.You just have to experiment and see whats what with your gun.Brands have little to do with it.Good luck!

Right now in the industry, the Indian Creek Black Diamond Strike custom chokes have earned the reputation as THE most accurate turkey chokes in the world. In fact, they have won EVERY event at the N.W.T.F championships, in EVERY division.... from 20 gauge to 12 gauge Open and Hunter class. Currently they also hold the World Record with 44 pellets in a 3" circle at 40 yards !!! [:-]

Other champion quality top end chokes that have proven themselves to be far better than most, in a variety of guns, are Comp-N-Choke and Kicks systems as well.

In a variety of our turkey guns, from the Benelii SBEII to our T/C Encore Pro Hunter, the Indian Creek chokes loaded with 3", 2oz, #6 Hevi13 loads are simply amazing!

Consistent 200+ pellet hitsat 30 yards....
