Title: new turkey gun
Post by: coyotetrpr on March 04, 2012, 09:48:14 PM
Well guys and gals I am going to order a new 835 turkey thug this week. I am going to put my hevi13 turkey choke in it and shoot the mag-blends that I already have. Please wish me luck because if this combo will not pattern I am going to be in a bad way.

This should be a shooter. I would deep clean the barrel before you pattern it so you get it's full potential. Good luck to you!

I agree with Cannon, at least deep clean the barrel good before you take it out, the mag blends didnt do good out of my 24" 835, maybe it will do better with your shorter barrel and choke combo.

The magblends do good out of my current 835 with the hevi13 choke, so I have some hope, but I am going to be pot commited if you know what I mean with this new gun.
