Do you hold out or go all in?

With the price of TSS shells, Nitro, etc.  Do you just put one in the chamber and back it up with cheaper lead loads or do you fill your gun to capacity with the expensive stuff?

[davisd9]

I load TSS and every shell in my gun is the same.  Usually back up shots are the more risky ones so why would I go with an inferior product?

Use all the same shell.

Use all of the same.

all in...

I'd use the same stuff though I use neither. Nitro will blow your barrel. TSS I've never used n the most popular sizes aren't legal where I hunt.
In lots of turks over lots of time I can't recall once or twice maybe needing a second shot. The cost shouldn't be a factor.  Keep em with the effective range and take only good shots. The killing is easy than.

Shot shells, either TSS or Hevi-13's are the cheapest consumable component of my turkey season and I wouldn't even consider having an inferior shell in my gun in the all important "back-up" role.  I usually put a H-13, 7 in the chamber backed by H-13, 6's or  MagBlends in the magazine.  I have had a couple of times where a moving bird, or just bad shot placement on my part, knocked down a gobbler which got up, one time off and running, and the heavier larger shot "back-up" load knocked down and killed the bird.

K.I.S.S.  All the same. If you can afford to pattern the expensive stuff and afford the one in the barrel, then you can afford to put 2 more in the magazine.

Once yiu start loading tss you'll never shoot anything else

All in. Loaded to the gills.

It's one of those things that "if you have to ask the price..."

That said, let a coyote or the like stroll by and I'm reaching in my vest for a throw-down LB.

I shoot an O/U so no magazine, but both barrels contain the good stuff.

[Ozarks Hillbilly]

I'm all in

[howl]

Single barrel .410 only holds one. So, yeah, I go all in!

[the Ward]

All in. Whatever shells I patterned the gun/choke with gets loaded up. No surprises that way.

x2. It's only money, they make it everyday.
