Title: SXP with Carlsons 0.665 and 3.5" #5 LBXR's

New turkey gun for 2019.

Tell me what you guys think.  This is the 24" Turkey Hunter model SXP.  I was using the standard Carlson's 0.665 LBXR invector plus choke with 3.5" #5 LBXR, 2 oz, 1200 fps shells.  Had 151 hits inside the 10" circle at 40 yards.  I also shot the stock choke but it did not perform as well.

Should I stop here or look at new chokes or shells.

BTW - the gun is awesome.  It weighs less than 7 lbs without shells.  The camo pattern looks like actual photos of leaves and twigs.  Action is super smooth.  Trigger is heavy.
