My friend just got one and we ran a few of my chokes through it last week. IC 660 shot great. He is shopping for one now.
The gun felt great. Very very light I'm sure with 3 1/2's its going to be a shoulder buster. We were using my lead sled so who knows.

I have two 535's both with Pure Gold .670 chokes.  VERY even 10 and 20 inch patterns.

I've had several of those guns in different models. I now have one with the combo turkey & waterfowl barrels. The others I had went to friends who use them regularly for a variety of game. We've all found the SSX and the Hevi-13 chokes to work very well with those guns. Most are shooting H-13 shells or good lead loads through their guns, one is shooting Heavyweight shot however and he's very happy with his results.

Thanks,
Clark

I have the Tactical Turkey version with the 20" barrel and ATI adjustable stock.   After lots of pattern testing with various chokes and loads, I finally found a combo that works.      I now run a .660" Indian Creek choke with either Hevi 3-2-6 or 3-2-7 shells.     I have a solid 40 yard turkey slayer now.
