Title: Rossi tuffy 410
Post by: fadetoblack188 on October 24, 2025, 01:21:51 PM
I have a rossi tuffy 410 with a jebs xfull choke

The apex is getting hard for me to get and to expensive

Anyone shooting the federal or winchesters with good pattern?

Winchester lbtss gave me a decent pattern and I would hunt them, but the apex ninjas were better. Just have to try and see if the Win meets your requirements.

before I stared hand loading #10's, the best patterning shells I found on the shelf were the browning tss. They were also the cheapest at the time

that was with Stevens 301 and a Rossi

Browning TSS has patterned good thru my sons Tuffy using the factory choke and the turkeys it's killed haven't complained either.

Good point!  I have seen the browning loads perform well on several videos but have not tried them myself. Winchester actually makes the Browning ammo.

Which chokes are you using in the tuffy Turkey with the Apex Ninja's 9.5's?

I get almost the same patterns from my factory and Trulock with Ninjas - both are 385. I tried a 390 and 381, but were not as good.
