I was wondering the exact same thing. I'm going to pattern mine in the next few days. I'll let you know.

I have two of these chokes one in my wife's gun and one in mine. Have a box of the heavyweight 7s left for her and shot all I had for my gun will be patterning the tss soon. I called truelock and they said it shot the tss well, they recommended federal tss 7s

With all due respect to Truelock (a very fine company), whoever recommended TSS 7s doesn't know what they are talking about unless you live in a state that doesn't allow 9 shot. TSS 9s are far superior to 7s for turkeys. The 7s have a huge surplus of energy at the expense of pattern density.

I have the choke in my 21" 1187. Shooting a 1 5/8oz #9 tss it was about 300 in the ten inch at 40
