First tom yrs ago shot w reg full choke 1100 mag and 5s, was around 20 yards. Killed a few more and switched to 4s and Superfull Remchoke on 870 supermags ( only ran 3" ).





Been playing with TSS in .410 and 20ga for a year, but doubt it’s a big advantage for 12s at ordinary ranges; might even be too much of a good thing. Those patterns from rene50’s gun are scary-good.

The TSS I have, Apex and Federal, was purchased in 2020 and last year. Looks like this year’s prices are up maybe 50%!

I like TSS shot also. Sounds like fun chasing them with a .410 loaded up with it. I stick with a plain Jane Rem 870 Express 12 gauge and Pure Gold turkey choke. I’m not sure that TSS is a big advantage either but it does extend my range by a few yards when they hang up right on the edges. I’m comfortable out to 50 yards. For the amount of shooting I do at turkeys I bought a few boxes of Federal TSS a few years back to pattern with and it will last me several years. I haven’t priced it recently.
