20 gauge Federal Heavyweight in 1 1/2 oz #7 for $20 a box of 5 or so, + shipping.  I don't know how much hevi is in the 20 gauge.  12 gauge hevi in 3.5" 2 1/4 oz #7 are $30 a box or so.  You just have to get on the web and search.

I would think Hevi 13 with their $10 a box rebate for up to 2 boxes for $20 max rebate. Buy local or search for the cheapest shipping. Rebate form online. Check classifies on OG

Nick8403 Shoot whatever non toxic your gun shoots the best . 1 Box of shells will last you all season , so please shoot the best you can for your sake and the Birds.

Well steel would be the cheapest but in no way would I ever shoot steel at turkeys. Hell I don't even want to shoot it at waterfowl but the govt makes me. Go hevi

There was a thread started recently called what I find and the forum member was posting name and phone # of store clearancing turkey products. I know a few of them were non toxic shot. One specifically was Remington Hevi shot. dont remember price but for 10 Shells and I think $20 ish bucks it might be a good bet

Doesn't Hevi make a Hevi/Steel blend?  Hevi Metal I think is what its called, I would think it would be cheaper. No idea if it shoots well, though.
