anyone with a Stevens 301 turkey gun in 12 or 20ga (26" barrel) done any patterning with the Winchester LB's particularly with 3" #6 shot? I read that they're supposed to be made TSS friendly but I'm a lead guy and like the looks of this gun. I have the twin 870's but a lightweight turkey gun could find some use for some of the places I hunt.
thanks in advance

I know you like .660 chokes and a 26" barrel will probably do very well with one.

that's getting it done. very good pattern. I actually shoot a .665 all the time in my 21" 870 but like to have a .660 around just in case. My son has a 20ga Revelation with a 28" factory full that shoot super good just like it is but it kicks like a rented mule.

Ain't nothing like a single shot with a turkey load to remind you of what recoil is !

I actually owned a NEF single in 12ga 3.5" that I had worked up with the forcing cone pushed and Remchoke threads with optics. You want RECOIL?!?! I even took the weight out of the stock to lighten it some more since I had to carry it for well over a mile each way where I used to hunt. Ended up only shooting 3" loads tho... :camohat:
anyone know what size choke comes in the Stevens 301 12ga turkey shotgun?
surely someone knows the measurement of the factory 301 turkey chokes?
