Hornady turkey loads

[TrkyHntr]

I don't know anything about these loads, but I was in dicks sporting goods the other day and saw these on the shelf. They were 12ga 3" 1 3/4oz nickel plated #5 lead. If I remember correct the mv was 1300fps. They called the wad they used the versatite wad. Says on the box works best with an improved cylinder or modified choke. Something new for you guys shooting lead.

Wow nothing on their site.. I was thinking a while back they should enter the fray.. But with the availability of HTL bulk shot these days, they could have made a better choice.. Hopefully these are cutting edge..

interesting they make mighty fine rifle shells

I did a quick google search and it appears as if the same wad is in use in their buckshot loads.. Everyone swears its a Flitecontrol wad most likely with royalties to federal.. .

That would be awesome if Hornady got into the mix.  I swear by there riffle ammo.

Flight control or not I would like to see a Hornady turkey load.  If they can keep up with their high standards I think they may be able to compete.

Dicks Sporting Goods is the only place I've seen these loads. I didn't know they existed until I saw them there.

Well, buy a box and send them downrange. Inquiring minds are dying to know. I just can't wait to see pix of patterns shot through an imp cyl. 

I might pick up a box when I'm back over that way. I'll shoot them through my modified choke, lol.

First I've ever seen/heard of em also. I saw these in Dick's Sporting Goods in Madison, MS. I really like how it says on the package that they are best when used with improved or modified chokes.
