Is anyone using these loads?  If so, what gun/choke combo are you shooting?  Thanks and regards.

I am until I can find xtended range's somewhere. I shot at 50 yards and had around 20 hits in the vitals. I shoot a Remingtong 870 SPS turkey/predator, 20" barrell, Remington super full choke, it's all stock on their site. I feel comfortable shooting this combo at 50 yards, but not much further.
Hope this helps.

Here at Old Gobbler we don't like to talk about shots over 40yds.  I know your probably new and unaware of this.  But let's keep the talk of long shots out of discussions here please and stay with the 40yds which is the more ethical and practical approach to good turkey hunting values. 

Thanks.

I just got a box since no Xtended Range are to be found!!!!!!!! I shoot a Indian Creek with # 5 and have a 20" barrel on a 835. Very lethal past 50 yards with the Xtended. I am going to try some magnum blend this weekend to see how it shoots

Again we don't talk about 50yds shots here at OG.  It's 40yds and under.  Too many birds get wounded by folks who hear or read of guys trying to kill turkeys at longer ranges from folks that say they do so successfully only to later find out they ended up wounding a bird and was mislead by what they heard or read.
