Title: 20ga Encore loads
Post by: Brian Stewart on March 07, 2012, 10:35:10 PM
I've been lurking around and reading for a while but just now signed up. I  just bit the bullet and got a 20ga Prohunter Turkey gun. I have a Red dot coming for it and I also bought a few boxes of hevi #7's and Magnum blend to try. I also bought a Hevi-Shot turkey choke tube to try. I was wondering if anyone has one and what setup the are using. I've used a NWTF 1300 for years now and have killed the snot out of them with it but I just wanted to try something different this year and I figured a single shot 20ga would fit the bill for my taste.

They are a pleasure to carry and line up great for me . I use a Sumtoy 562 in one barrel and a IC 555 in another .Both like the 7s . The Sumtoy choke shoots Nitro 7s better . I think you will like your Encore.  :anim_25:
