What do you want to know about it? I shot 3 inch 2's out of a mossy 835 with a carlsons extended modified choke. It didnt live up to its hype, shot no different than cheapy federal blue box steel.

It is just standard steel shot mixed with some rough-cut steel shot and I wouldn't shoot it at turkeys.

If it is the prairie storm LEAD version, yes it will work but i don't know how well it will pattern out of a tight turkey choke.

We patterned some of these Prairie Storm in 3" 1 5/8  in 5 shot, on Saturday. Killed a gobbler graveyard dead this morning at 39 yards through a browning full choke. His head was shot all to pieces. Turkey never flopped. His neck was broken in three places. I will shoot them any day.
