I will be running with my little 20 ga 500 with TSS again this year. Last year was her break in year and she did me good! She earned her place in the woods.

I'll be shooting my 835 ulti mag shooting Winchester supreme XX 5s. Been using that gun since the early 90s I think. Bought an Ithaca turkey slayer last year. Never got a chance to use it but I've got it set for 5 longbeards, be using that some too. Also got a Benelli 20 ga I may set up n use. Like to shoot heavy 7s through it, stuff patterns great through my daughters old Winchester.  We will see. As many guns I own n it's a bunch it's more about the turkeys n the hunt than the gun. Kinda strange cause I'm kind of a gun crazy guy n have multiple guns set up but always grab a familiar piece when after turks. Been known to pick dif rifles or slug guns come firearm deer season n shoot deer w at least a couple.

I've got an early 90's 835 that I stopped using 3 seasons ago cause she quit ejecting heavy turkey loads. If I can find a pic I'll post it.

A little newer 835 but she was very good to me!

I've been rocking the 3.5" Browning BPS since 2008...



Last season I used a buddy's old school Mossy 835. I haven't talked him into selling it to me yet, but I plan on using it again this spring. I need to buy a choke for it...

Not really sure which choke I want to try. Think I'm leaving hevi for the LB bandwagon.
