3 Elite Tactical Chokes for the Benelli M4 Shotgun

↬ The Benelli M4 is one of the most trustworthy and dependable tactical shotguns. It functions smoothly and reliably in even the most demanding situations, but it needs the right choke tube to function effectively.

The Carlson’s Buckshot choke is the best choke tube for the Benelli M4 Shotgun. It can deliver tight patterns with buckshot loads that exceed results from factory choke tubes. Its tight diameter means pellets stay compact at longer ranges and its compatibility with large buckshot sizes keeps it functioning reliably no matter what ammo you feed it.

In this guide, we’ll discuss in more detail why you should consider these chokes, the features behind them, and what to expect at certain distances. And remember, always pattern your shotgun to see how it performs with the ammo you plan on using so adjustments can be made to maximize performance.

Best Chokes for the Benelli M4 Shotgun

These are the three chokes you should consider for the Benelli M4 that can provide more consistent results with buckshot for tactical situations. Benelli M4 shotguns use the Mobil choke system.

1) Carlson’s Buckshot Choke Tube

The Benelli M4 works especially well with the Carlson’s Buckshot Choke. This tight choke gives dense patterns at extend ranges with 00 and 000 buck. It has a diameter of 0.695″ which is close to a light full. It’s the perfect choke for tactical situations with varying distances.

The ported design channels gases outward, resulting in reduced felt recoil and quicker follow up shots. The longer taper helps provide a more gradual compression to the shot column resulting in more pellets on target. If you plan on shooting buckshot through your M4, this is the choke to get. Carlson’s Buckshot choke is the TOP pick.

3) Carlson’s Rifled Choke Tube

Carlson’s rifled choke is another good option for the M4 in that it is specifically designed for slugs and sabots. The right hand twist spins the slug as it exits the barrel for greater stability and accuracy at range. If you shoot slugs exclusively or switch occasionally from buckshot, this a great choke to keep in the shooting bag to swap out if needed.

The Carlson’s rifled choke is designed to be used with slugs in the M4, providing improved accuracy and range. It performs well with both lead buckshot and sabot slugs, making it a versatile choice for home defense. It is also suitable for use in both smoothbore and rifled barrel shotguns. This is the pick for SLUGS.

What is the best Benelli M4 choke for slugs and sabots?

The Benelli M4 shotgun works well with a wide variety of choke tubes and shot types. This is true with slugs and sabots. Slugs can all be fired through most models of the M4 which it is specifically designed for.

The best Benelli M4 choke tube for sabots is the Carlson’s Rifled Choke. It provides dense patterns with slugs, 00 and 000 buckshot. It works especially well out to ranges of 50 yards.

Another great option for a choke tube that works well for the M4 is the Carlson’s Buckshot series of chokes. Unlike the rifled choke, this smooth bored choke won’t spin the wad when it exits the barrel. This means better patterns with buckshot loads.

Are Benelli factory chokes good enough?

Often overlooked are the factory choke tubes that are included with the Benelli M4 when bought new. The Mobil choke system is installed on most M4 shotguns and can be customized with interchangeable choke tubes built for it.

Factory Benelli chokes tubes can be good enough, but it depends on the application it’s being used for (e.g. slugs, buckshot, tactical situations) and the shotshell loads. These factors will determine if the factory choke you have is capable of performing for any given situation.

Once you’ve determined that the factory choke size and constriction is right, then patterning the M4 with the loads you intend to use with will let you know if it’s good enough to use in the field. If patterning can’t be done, then an aftermarket choke tube like the Mojo Fatal Shot will most likely perform better right out of the box.

How It Compares

When it comes to choosing the right choke tube for the Benelli M4, Carlson’s Buckshot Choke stands out from its competitors. The Carlson’s Buckshot Choke is engineered with a unique design that provides consistent and even shot patterns, resulting in better accuracy and a higher precision. Unlike its competitors, the Buckshot Choke is built with Triple Shot Technology, which ensures that the shot is evenly distributed, reducing the chances of having holes or gaps in your pattern. Additionally, the Buckshot Choke’s longer parallel section helps to reduce recoil, which in turn leads to more controlled shots and better follow ups. Overall, the Carlson’s Buckshot Choke is a top performer, delivering outstanding results that set it apart from the competition.

Bottom Line

Several factory choke tubes come with the Benelli M4, but they aren’t always the best. After market premium choke tubes are available to provide enhanced features and better patterning results that translate to better success in the field.

The best choke tubes for the Benelli M4 are the Carlson’s Buckshot and Mojo Fatal Shot. These two choke tubes can provide dense patterns at long ranges with buckshot. If you plan to use only slugs, then the Carlson’s Rifled choke is preferred due to the add accuracy from the grooves inside the choke that spin the slug for stability in flight.

As always, patterning should be completed with the choke tube and ammo you plan to use to really see what works best. Ammo can be finicky out of some choke tubes, so patterning with as many combinations as you can is always the best option. Make sure the choke you choose is compatible with the ammo you plan to shoot out of it.
