I bought my daughter a youth 20 gauge Benelli Nova for turkey hunting. Was curious if anyone out there has this gun and what choke and shot combinations worked best for you.
Thanks.
Thanks.

I've got the same exact gun. Full choke it with the factory issued chokes and I've always shot 2 3/4 #6's but I'm shooting three inch shells this season in the same gun.

I think MKW shoots a Benelli and said he got the best pattern using Jellyhead and Federal HW 7.
send him a pm and ask.

Yep, I shoot a M1 20ga with a JellyHead and Federal #7 HW. Nice, even, consistant pattern of around 160 at 40yrds. I tried several chokes and the JellyHead was the best, for me.
And...without reloading, Federal HeavyWeights are the absolute best turkey loads for the 20ga, IMO.
