what kind of choke are you running through it, I put an indian crreek on mine.... they kick like a missouri mule, but the turkey gets the worst end of the deal

Right now I'm gonna run the stock choke with win supremes in either 5 or 6.
Come summertime, I'll look into a different choke possibly. Also just installed a limbsaver pad on her last nite.

I have a Jellyhead(.690) you are more than welcome to try when you get ready to test her out. I use an indian creek .675, but the jelly head is pretty good all around, and shoots lead really well. Nice rig, mine is beat up, rattles quite a bit, but she will flat throw a nasty pattern.

I like it Mike, except for the missouri mule part.  :TooFunny:
