The addiction will cost you time and money and alienate those close to you. I can give you the names of a dozen addicts — myself included — whose wives begin to get their hackles up a week before turkey season starts and stay mad until a week after it closes.

I've used 6 and 7 similar results to yours as in 20% or so fewer hits with 6s but still more than adequate...they both crush birds.  My dad even shoots Hevi 5s like hitting them with a freight train...still gets 175 in 10" at 40.  Good luck!
shoot first, measure spurs later

Mine does 240`s but with a .660 choke, the .675 Briley numbers were not good. Also broke the ejector on the 10th shot, so off it goes to Ithaca in the morning. Mike

I've evaluated.643-.675 in an Ithaca Mod. 37, King Ferry, Turkeyslayer utilizing about 6 different choke tube manufacturers.  I got the best Mag Blend patterns w/ a Mad .675 and w/ an Indian Creek .660 got good even 10" and 20" patterns shooting Hevi-13 6's and 7's w/ numbers about 20% greater than your getting w/ the .675.  You might want to evaluate the IC .660.

What thread pattern did that King Ferry Turkey slayer have. Was it Tru choke.
