I'm enjoying my 410. Shoots great and feels like a quality gun. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200420/bfd1c33adaf69ad591ec6f6667e410da.jpg)

Bought it just before the season started.

Low volume gunning I would think they would be ok. I have seen some of there trap guns that simply come apart with the volume of shooting that comes with trap.
Made in Turkey I think? Maybe give Remington a look, great time to by US products.

Just so you know hand load 9.5s thru comp n choke 385 shot 120-130 in 10 at 40

I was told the jebs xfull with 10s would do 200 but I have yet to pattern

The factory turkey choke did not perform very good

Enjoying my TriStar.

I had my concerns with the brand because a buddy of mine years ago had a TriStar come apart in the swamp while we were duck hunting. Come to find out he had taken it apart the night before and didn't push the bolt handle all the way in when reassembled.

Was also looking at the .410 in it as well. Amazing how the caliber is so good for Turkey now.

I have it in the 12. Got to take it to the field wednesday for our opener and it performed well. Very happy with mine. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200424/9da5b141b2d96fac9aed57391f5a70cd.jpg)
