Anybody shooting one of these? looking to set mine up and was wondering if anyone had a choke/load combo that was working for them. Was thinking of starting with a PG .670  and H-13 6's and 7's, but I am open to suggestions. Never used it as a turkey gun before.

Thanks

I do not have as many readers who shoot Beretta shotguns as some other brands but those who do have had excellent results with the Wright's Turkey chokes over the years. They are available in 3 different exit diameters. The #1 is .670, the #2 is .660 and the #3 is .650. Most have chosen the #3 with their guns.

Pure Gold has always been a popular brand of choke with those guns and the the Hevi-13 turkey choke has started to develop a following in the last couple of years.

I don't think you'd go wrong with any of those chokes and your choice of shotshells is exactly what I'd choose as well.

Thanks,

I run a beretta 390. I shot several combos out of it over the years. These are all 40 yards with an pops factor built in.

Comp n choke XX full with, 2 3/4 winchester XX 4s
Kicks GT 660 with Winchester extended range 5s or 6s
Indian creek 665 with Hevi 13 2oz 6s.

These were all great combos for me and killed many birds. Ive probably got 20 dead gobblers with this gun. The last bird was a Kicks win 5 kill


A buddy also has same gun and liked my comp n choke with lead 4s. He has been running that combo for a few years and says he loves it.
