The Carlson Carl Ber Optima HP 12ga Sporting Clays Modified Choke Tube is crafted from 17-4 stainless and precision machined to deliver tighter, denser patterns than standard chokes, with a 25% larger parallel section that enhances consistency across shots. Designed for the Optima HP platform, this choke features a .713 inch diameter and a Modified constriction, making it ideal for Sporting Clays applications while noting it is not for use with steel shot; compatibility extends to lead, copper-plated, nickel, and Hevi-Shot shells as well as buckshot, giving shooters versatility across various loads. A knurled end provides quick, tool-free removal, and the constriction is laser marked on the end for easy reference between sessions. While the thin-wall design supports tighter results, steel shot should not be used in the Modified, IM, Full, or EF constrictions, so shooters pursuing steel loads should explore the Extended Super Steel options for tighter choices. Backed by a lifetime warranty, these sporting clay choke tubes are engineered to outperform standard tubes by maintaining a longer parallel section that yields steadier, more repeatable patterns, helping you maximize your performance on every flight.
