Title: What do you shoot?
Post by: jblackburn on January 28, 2014, 12:45:16 AM
What are you all using to bust heads this year?

I have an 835 that I used up until 2 years ago that I may bring back out.  I put Winchester Supreme XX (red ones) in #6 through it.  I also have an 870 with and IC that I shoot 3 inch hevi 6's, that choke throws a wicked pattern.

I'll also probably try to take another with my bow using bullheads.

I've got 2 guns that I have set up for turkey hunting. First one is a Browning Gold .12 ga./Leupold Scope/Pure Gold choke/HV #7's. I use this one if I'm hunting on small pieces of property where I have to sit more. It's kind of heavy.  Second gun is a T/C Encore .12ga./ Thumbhole stock/ JellyHead choke/HV#7's. Use this gun when I'm run'n'gunnin. Also have a .20 gauge barrel for the T/C I'll use sometimes. IC choke in the .20 shooting HV #7's once again.
