Title: The ultimate turkey gun.
Post by: coyotetrpr on April 08, 2011, 10:45:19 AM
There are so many different guns out there that I would like your opinions about the best. For example, Mosberg 935 Nikon turkey-pro scope Hevi13 Choke and Magblend 3.5 shells                                                                                                                                                       The pinacle combo if you will

With so many great guns to choose from it's hard to say, "this is the ULTIMATE".  This is what I have put together and think it's a pretty bad rig.  870 Remington SPS-T Camo Supermagnum, Tasco (multi-retical) Pro Point sight, .665 Jellyhead choke, Blackhawk Camo (recoil reduction) Spec Ops stock.

Just a matter of what a man's looking for. I don't think a gun has to be tricked out with all the extras to be the ultimate turkey gun. If a rig will shoot to POA and consistently put up great numbers at 40 with the load I choose it's fine with me.

I have a SBEII 24" barrel speed bead .665 Rob Roberts choke a killer to 65yards if you wanted to shoot that far, I like to keep it within 40 when hunting, but 60+ when shooting paper. Is it the ultimate doubt it but I like it, this is no different then the question Ford, Chevy or Dodge? If you can shoot it well then you have the ultimate turkey gun.

Everyone has their own definition of the "ultimate" turkey. Mine would be a 12 ga. Beretta A400 Xplor dipped in Realtree AP with a low power turkey scope (Nikon, Leupold) mounted as low as possible. It would be fitted with a choke that patterned in the 275's with Hevi-13 2 oz. 7's at 40 yards. But then again I'm satisfied with what I have as long as it keeps killing gobblers!

Well my ultimate is in the works:

Browning BPS 10 gauge, choke that puts 50% of a load in the 10" at 40, Eotech XPS or Aimpoint, Quake Claw Sling, TSS reloads or Nitro Straight 7's or Hevi MagBlends.

Well now have a Benelli M2 Field on lay-a-way also. It is getting a FFII, SumToy choke and TSS.

I am sure everyone is different, but that is my dream turkey gun.

The Ultimate Turkey Gun, in my opinion, is the Gun you have in your hands when you make Ole Three Toes head and neck look like JELLY!!!!  Mine is:

Mossberg 835
.670 Pure Gold Choke Tube
Bushnell Red Dot Scope
Limbsaver Recoil Pad
Beartooth Comb Raising Kit
3 1/2" 2 1/4 oz #7 Hevi-13's

First PIC is an Osceola taken on 3/8/11 outside of Naples, Florida
Second PIC is an Eastern taken on 4/9/11 in Eastern North Carolina

Everyone to their own..   But i took a browning citori o/u had rhino lengthen the forcing cone,port both barrels,put a kick eeze pad on it.  It has a barrel selector safety  so I put a rhino turkey choke on top which is good to and easy 55yds and put a modifies on bottom for those closer range shots cause a turkey at 25 yds can be missed with the top barrel if not aimed correctly. also put a set of williams rifle sites on rib to get it zeroed in correctly.  But what really matters is what you as an individual like.  goo luck this season...

Browning Cynergy camo,  50% pattern in 10" @40yd, ported barrels, with FF2 or Eotech.  Lightweight always goes boom.

I use just a plain jane Mossberg 500, that I painted, with a factory XX Full choke and have killed many gobblers with it

The gun cost me $90.00 brand new back in 1974

The choke tube cost me $15 or $20 can't remember

I have enough shells to last me 10 years, I think I paid $5 a box for them

my "ultimate turkey gun" is my remington 1187SM with sure shot stock and a rhino .660 choke tube.

My first choice would be a 870 Express followed by a Moss 835.  But that is just me.  I own each.  And I love both.

Mine would be one that brings in every tom to 30 yards and then smacks them in the head.
