Extended choke tubes are designed to provide a tighter shot pattern and increased accuracy for shotguns. They can be especially useful for hunters who need to take long-range shots, or for anyone who wants to improve their shotgun accuracy.
Extended choke tubes work by constricting the shotgun’s bore diameter at the muzzle end. This constriction forces the pellets to spread out less as they travel downrange, resulting in a tighter shot pattern. The amount of constriction can be varied depending on the type of extended choke tube being used.
Some extended choke tubes also have ports or other features that help reduce pellet deformation and improve aerodynamic performance. This can again lead to improved accuracy, especially at longer ranges.
It’s important to note that not all shotguns are compatible with extended choke tubes. Make sure to check your shotgun’s owner’s manual before purchasing or using any type of extended choke tube.
