I wouldn't get too riled up about it. Use what your guns like. I would look at Remington Nitro Mags and Federal copper plated Pheasant loads. I've killed 3 turkeys that I can think of with the 20ga 2 3/4" pheasant loads. I think they were #5's. They all died. One was while I was grouse hunting. It was shot at 30-35yds with a modified choke.

Worry more about your pattern than your load. Hit em in the face/neck and you'll kill it.
