20Ga Load Testing - Need different shells

<< < (2/3) > >>

hughjorgan:
I run a 20 gauge for turkeys with TSS , use a kicks choke tube with .560 constriction and run 3” #9s from salt creek customs or verdict. I’ve ran federal TSS with good results as well. I found that the tighter  choke constriction of .555 didn’t pattern as well. They say TSS works best with a constriction between .555-.565

I’ll be in Puyallup around Christmas if you want to try a verdict #9s I could give you one just let me know.

ASHQUACK:
I'll look at my shell stash, I think I only have tss loads maybe a few tss/lead federal shells. I know i have several boxes of hevi metal 20ga turkey loads.

Absolutely.   Im not against using TSS if that gets me the pattern I am looking for.
