Home Forums Birds & Dogs Turkey Hunting Indian Creek Choke Tubes: 3rd Consecutive NWTF Still Target Champion

The guy you know lied to you.

I can put about 275 shot out of the 305 shot total from a 2 and 1/4oz #4 load in a 30" circle consistently at 40yds with my 835 and Undertaker choke. You do the math on the pecentage. My 835 will put approx 450+ shot in a 30" circle at 40yds using the Federal Premium 2 and 1/4oz #6 loads and a Carlson .675 choke. That's 90% patterns as well.

I'll stick with my #4 loads that cost me about a $1 a pop. I can kill turkeys out to 60yd from my experience using them.

The Browning Gold 3.5" with 1 and 3/4oz #6 Hevi-Shot loads shot a 98% pattern at 40yds with a .670 Comp-n-Choke. I put I believe 181 shot in a 8.5" 11" piece of paper at 40yds. That's not too bad for 1 and 3/4oz loads. But like I said, I like #4's. I sold the Browning after I bought the 835 because it simply shot heavy #4 loads better.
