Whats a good choke and shell for my new Mossberg 500 Tactical Turkey Thug?
Im new to 20's so far I have a Factory X-Factor .585 and a Primos Tight-Wad .555
My barrel's 22" long.
Anybody done anything with the short 20ga guns?
Have heard the Trulock .575 is really good choke in them. It is one of the first I will try if the full choke that came with it does not shoot like I want.

the primos .570 tightwad is a good choke without breaking the bank, also a Carlson .575 is an excellent choke in my short barreled 870
Harrison has an 18" barreled Mossy 510. He shoots a flush mount full choke with the 3" Federal Heviweight #7's. At 30 yards, we get 193 in the 10" circle.
I know I can get better numbers, but he's still a young shooter, and I sacrifice a little distance for a more even pattern.
It's worked well so far. He's been 3-3 last 3 seasons, and the gun with that combo and a FFII has been responsible for 4 dead turkeys in the first past 3 seasons.
Carlson 575 and hw 7s

How does the gun pattern with the chokes you presently have? What loads have you tried?
