    Single barrel 10 gauge has always knocked them down for me, got a double barrel 10 last year that will see some action too

    Should work fine, try the high bird shells, pheasant loads. Hard shot.

    This is my Browning Gold Hunter 3inch , I have taken many gobblers with it. I always believed in Winchester double x magnum # 4. Sometimes you had to clip a limb in the way, but with 4’s that didn’t matter, they would blaze a trail.

    I'm still using conventional 3" "turkey" loads with #4 shot.Sometimes I use Remington Duplex with 4x6 shot.

    My current turkey gun is Benelli M2 Camo with either a 26" or 21" barrel.

    PS: My current favorite choke is an Indian Creek .665. I have used a Rhino .660 and a Pure Gold .670.
