Izzy, what kind of patterns and what ranges does it perform nicely in?  I may just say screw it and run one of them.

Thanks

that's easy, see if you can find a primos tightwad at your local wal mart   15-20.00
yup!  Get ya a tightwad or a carlsons and spend the rest on 4-5 boxes of shells

Well fellas. I tried emailing a few times and private messages here along with calling 3 times to Sumtoy to no avail. I give up. I ordered a Trulock Heavyweight #7 tube just now off their website and I'll run that no matter what.  Maybe next year I'll try some other tubes,  but from what I've read here and some other reviews elsewhere; I think I'm going to be happy with the trulock.

I tried finding a hastings and a Rem factory tube, but no luck there either.

SSX is another good option if the trulock doesn't shoot well.

Chatter, the ssx shot excellent out of a bennelli I owned.

I'm actually meeting a guy today to sale a pistol, so I'll have some extra fun money to spend trying tubes. I decided to sale a pistol last night.

I hope Sumtoy comes through eventually. I want to try his, and I'm still wanting to try a IC and I'd ,over to try a hastings and factory super full like some of b you fellas recommended. What's another good one. Should I try PG .570 or Carlsons.
I hAve to admit I'm a numbers guy. I love walking upto the targets and seeing all those teeny weeny holes everywhere.

I'm sorry to get back so late, I'm getting 116 in 10" at 40 yds. With a 26" tube and the tightwad, and the 2.75 HW 7's. A couple years ago I went to basspro, and 2.75 were all they had so I bought 4 boxes. I only have one box of the 3", and I'm saving those for hunting!

Pretty sweet with the 2.75 20 gauge.

If money is tight and you are not happy with the Trulock, call Mr. George back and tell him.  He will make it right.  Same is true of Sumtoy as well.  Can't go wrong with either one.  I heard that Sumtoy was having a few issues this last week and probably why they did not get back to you. Someone else will know.  I chose Trulock, but only because I can drive to their place.  Either them or Sumtoy would be my pick.
