What are you using for turkey season?

[ATbuckhunter]

What gun do you plan to use for turkey season? Also what shells do you plan on using this season? I'm going to be using a Mossy 535 with hevi shot mag blend shells. Post some pics of you have them.

870 Supermag shooting winchester longbeards,was shooting magblends but the longbeards pattern better

[ants]

Mossberg 835 loaded with Winchester Double X  3 1/2" #5. Although I picked up some of those Long beard loads last year, but never patterned them in my gun. I might this year.

[wooly]

I'll be shooting these again...

 

 

Out of my $50 New England Firearms single shot, full choked 12ga.... hopefully while wearing my favorite hunting shorts.

Never hunted turkey! Going to pattern my shotgun and go out with a few friends this year.

Exact same gun and load, it wrecks 'em!

I'm sticking with the Winchesters.

   X-bow for first time or REM.870 extra full turkey choke 2 3/4 mag  # 5s

Thats why I never tried the Long beards. The pattern from the Double X #5's (and #4's) is sick.

[WNY Bowhunter]

Gun = Browning BPS / 3.5" / 26" barrel

 

 

Load = Hevi Magnum Blend

 

Choke = Pure Gold .670

Tried the longbeards last spring and they were a HUGE disappointment!!!

[ATbuckhunter]

How so WNY? 

[WNY Bowhunter]

Just didn't pattern very well in my gun. Lots of people love them though.

 

[Terry]

Rem 870 supermag, 23" rs barrel, Hevi-shot .662 choke. Probably gonna use the mag blends again.

You're the man Wooly, no recoil pad. My NEF is possibly a newer or upgraded model (Pardner) in 12ga, 3 1/2", camo with an Xtra full choke tube. It has a modest recoil pad. I've had a bruised shoulder a few times from mine! See it also comes in a 10ga, 3 1/2"mag. That dude is definitely not for the faint of heart! Anyone that has shot a single barreled shotgun knows what I mean!

Benelli supernova paired with kicks gobblin Thunder choke and hevi shot magna blend

[Mikey M]

Taking out ole Mitch... Mossberg 500 with a full choke and Remington Nitro Turkey #6 3"... Tried the long-beards last year and they patterned poorly out of my gun. Anyone try out those new Federal 3rd Degree rounds... Seen them in a bunch of magazines

[Skillet]

barnett cross bow

I'm going to take my Excalibur out too. Just not for opening day.

I think they're brand new for this year….$5 per round…....Ouch!!….

[MACHINIST]

A few guys on olgobbler haven't have any luck getting it to pattern

[ATbuckhunter]

Awesome pics guys! Federals 3rd degree is basically hevi shot mag blends, but with lead instead of hevi-shot. 

[dbHunterNY]

Benelli Supernova, one of the compounds, and at some point maybe the recurve. 

[ghug92]

Mossberg 535, its covered in camo now. Bowtech carbon knight with trophy ridge rocket hammerheads. 

 

 

[growalot]

Mossberg 20 3" magwinchester double X and or Nitros...both patern well out of my gun.probably use the oldest... depends on what my shoot and see look like...

 

But I really plan on using the cross bow...cross bow may give me equal or better distance
