Description
Browning Full choke tube in 12 Gauge.
A choke is a short constriction at the muzzle end of a shotgun barrel. Narrowing the bore by a few thousandths of an inch slows how quickly the shot column opens, so the same gun and the same shell can throw a tight pattern or a wide one depending on which tube is fitted.
Full is a tight constriction. It keeps the shot column together longer, which concentrates the pattern at distance at the cost of a smaller effective pattern up close.
This tube is cut for the Invector thread system. Choke threads are not standard across makers – Invector, Invector-Plus, Beretta/Benelli Mobil, Optima, Rem Choke and Accu-Choke are all different – so the system has to match what is cut into your barrel.
Gauge has to match too: this is 12 Gauge, and a tube of another gauge will not thread in.
A note on steel shot: steel does not compress the way lead does, and driving it through a very tight constriction can damage a barrel that is not rated for it. Check the maker's guidance for the tube and the barrel before shooting steel through a tight choke.
Patterns vary between guns, loads and shot sizes. The only way to know what a given choke does with the ammunition you shoot is to pattern it on paper at the distance you intend to use it.
Chokes are parts, not firearms, and ship directly to your address.
