Turkey Guns / Mossberg 20ga 500 Super Bantam...Last post by DMTJAGER - Today at 02:10:49 AMThe 20 gauge Mossberg 500 Super Bantam is advertised as having a receiver cut for a red dot sight.
Is there any way this cut in the receiver will accept a mounting scope base and rings system for mounting a traditional scope? or is it strictly red dot only? #5
Turkey Guns / Re: Best Turkey Gun Builder?Last post by DMTJAGER - Today at 01:59:52 AMQuote from: Fullfan on May 09, 2024, 07:00:01 AMIT is not as difficult as you think. With TSS the sub ga guns are the way to go. No need to carry a 7-8 pound gun around. Choose the gun you want, do some research. Find out what other guys are using and the results they are getting. I made the switch from the 12ga 3.5 about 13 years ago. Have a hand full of 20ga autos, and everyone of them do very well. I hand load my own TSS, so shooting and patterning in not expensive.Yep this 100% I walked over 60 miles while turkey hunting this season while carrying my 9.7lb 870 ESM. While it puts 422 #8.5 TSS in a 10" circle at 40, I decided I need something much lighter. So after MUCH research I bought A 20ga 24" Tristar Viper G2 PG model for $655 TMD with FFL XFR fee. It will be almost 3lbs lighter than my 870 ESM. Plan on shooting 8.5 TSS out of it. #6

Turkey Guns / Re: Vortex venom dust cover mo...Last post by DMTJAGER - Today at 12:59:09 AMI have reflex sights on two of my three turkey guns. Thay are awesome UNLESS you're hunting in rain or foggy conditions then they are a nightmare. My sons and I find ourselves hunting in rain or heavy fog at least 2-3x every turkey season (did 2x in the rain and 1x in pea soup thick fog this year already) and my boys and I got so utterly sick and tired of dealing with wet or condensated up reflex sights I just ordered two of these as they can take scope caps and will permanently replace my reflex sights on my turkey guns.
Was hunting three weeks ago in a steady light rain called in no less than 4 Toms off the roost to within 30 yards and my son couldn't see out of his reflex sight to make the shot. https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1026220684?pid=675806 Just like to update my post Ended up returning both the Hawke turkey scopes as the illuminated reticle was absolutely NOT visible in full sunlight and if I am spending $200 on a scope advertised as having an illuminated turkey specific reticle it darn well better be visible in all light. Ended up ordering two made in S/Korea Bushnell Elite 4500 1-4x24 scopes for my soon to arrive Tristar Viper G2 and my sons turkey gun. #10

Once i do so will report back here. |
