I don't waste money on high dollar shells...its the choke I don't skimp on...if its a turkey load I'll kill turkeys.....
I agree with most of the facts as you wrote them...
However, I want an edge. Which is why I shoot (and have shot) Nitro Company ammo for longer than most here have been Turkey hunting.
I don't want to wound one. I want to kill him.Dead. Dead. Dead.......
My mentor told me in 1978 that "we ain't here to take Prisoners" ....... I took that comment to heart and have used it as more words to live by ever since.
I have scaled back my hatred some, I am now shooting 1 7/8oz or 2oz loads....for a while, I was shooting a 3 oz load of #5s out of my Ten Gauge.....
I am mellowing in my "old age"
I been kinda reluctant to chime in on this thread. But, I would say skimping is all in your perspective.
So here again you have to use a little perspective. I been using a single barrel shotgun for 20 years, I have been known to shoot lead, I still use #5's and 6's. I don't shoot turkeys over 40 yards. I don't wear a vest or snake boots. So I'm either handicapping myself or just crazy.

I'm still laughing on that one Andy. Mellowing?
You just got tired of those shells knocking the living crap out of you. Tell the truth Andy!
Anyone figured the cost of a hand load vs a nitro or hevi shot of sorts? I see a lit about this TSS stuff, but you can't buy them. How much does one cist when final loaded in a 20 Ga that most carry??
yep.........Ammo will be the last thing I skimp on if I'm running outta money.
Dont care what shell you bring this year, but i hope you dont bring a glass coffee maker to camp again.
well Andy would be proud, I am going to test some Nitros this year eventhough I probably didn't need them
lol....... old threads being bumped up Gaswamp
I wish I could buy Nitro's for $6 a shell now....
