Is that a 12 gauge? What choke are you running for those Hevi 6’s?

 

[Tail Chaser]

Here is my Gun Doc special. 161 pellets in a 9” circle.

I get TSS for a 410 or a 28 ga, but long range turkeys??? What can possibly be the fun in that???

Yes, it`s a 12. Remington SPR 100. The choke is one I got from Cabelas back in 2008. It`s a .665.

Still working on this one, but 3.5in 2 5/8oz #8.5s at 53yds. It’s a 500+ 10in circle at 40yds. I tracked down a sx3 NWTF cantilever 12ga. It’s the exact same set up as my 20ga. But a 12ga version, I haven’t attempted to tote a 3.5in gun in the last 10yrs or so but figured I’d atleast see what cannon could do.

Both 24in,
20ga has the sling on it

Sighted in with Federal TSS 3.5" 12 ga, 7-9 shot last season. Found the recoil to be more than I desired in my 870 Rem Turkey Special. Switched to the same TSS 3" load this season. Below are the 3.5" patterns at 30 yrds from last year with an Indian Creek and a Carlson chokes. Stayed with the Carlson. Killed two with it last weekend, one at 55 yrds. Made a TSS believer of me.

In a 12 ga, 2.75 inch shells with TSS would be a more than adequate payload delivered to the turkey's noggin.

That’s what I’ll be toting in my 12 gauge single shot Couldn’t imagine a hot load in 3” in a 5.3# gun

tell us about your gun?

 

[Long Cut]

tell us about your gun?

That’s a Charles Daly 101 in 12 gauge 3” chamber with a 20” barrel

The gun breaks down completely in half and can be stored in a backpack, turkey vest, etc..

I may turkey hunt with it some, but it will be going off to Gun Docc or Sumtoy Custom’s for some work this Summer.

Is Curtis still working on shotguns?

Is Curtis still working on shotguns?

His website is still up. I have not contacted him yet, so I’m operating under the assumption that he still is.

You don’t have to go to a 20 ga or 410 to get less recoil.

Just go 12 ga 2 3/4”
