Title: 20 Ga. Fed HW # 6 @ 40 yds

I just recently got a Rem 1187 20ga. Decided since I was going to " NO BIRD BAMA " next week that I would fire a round today. Decided to shoot Fed HW 6's in it just for that extra downrange punch. I know this ain't no big number pattern but this is  going to be my back up turkey rig.

109 Hits @ 40 lazered yds. 26" barrel Fed HW 3" 1 1/2 oz #6   Rem Super Full Choke

Have a good turkey season everyone !

Do any of you folks  think that there is a better choke to shoot with this gun & ammo & get better results. I'm pretty set on the Fed HW #6's cause I know the damage they can do. Thanks for any  advice .

That Remington super full is also what gave me my best patterns with the Fed Heavyweight 6's, check out my posts and you can see the damage!

They now make lead only AND HTL approved chokes in their SF models.
