Cut your tweaking time down to nothin'.  Contact Sumtoy chokes (http://www.sumtoycustoms.com/index.php/chokes) and tell him that you have a Benelli Nova 20 gauge and want to shoot Federal Heavyweight #7s (http://www.federalpremium.com/products/details/shotshell.aspx?id=837) out of it. Shoot at paper and start counting.

The 20 Nova is my go to.  It shoots 2 3/4" better than 3".  Doesn't take any more to kill a turkey now than it did 50 years ago.

I have never owned a 12 gauge in my 71 years.  I have actually moved down to a 28 for this year.
