Turkey Season Ends Quickly with Winchester Long Beard XR Chokes From Trulock

To be sure, turkey hunting is an end in itself. You begin by creeping out into the woods or the edge of a field well before sunrise, close to where you put that big tom to bed the night before. You watch the world wake up and listen while some of the night’s marauders such as screech owls make their final calls before the avian day shift takes over. Amidst it all comes the gobble, then another, and perhaps that sound of wings flapping and a big bird thumping to earth to start it’s day of foraging food and looking for hens. You make some hen sounds, and before you know it, here he comes, right to your decoys.

Within minutes, he’s there, within 25 yards, and it’s time for the moment of truth. When you squeeze the trigger, you want as many pellets from your 12 gauge to hit that turkey and harvest him cleanly. That’s where the Winchester Long Beard XR Chokes from Trulock come into play.

After extensive and thorough testing, the Trulock Choke designers determined the perfect constriction to deliver maximum pellets at common ranges for taking a turkey. The Winchester Long Beard XR No. 5 is made for that popular turkey pellet size with a .75 constriction; hunters who prefer No. 6 should try the Winchester Long Beard XR No. 6, which has a .80 constriction.
