Anyone use a sx4 20 for turkey. If so how's it pattern?

I have two 20 gauge SX4's and love them. On one I use an Indian Creek .570 and the other an Indian Creek .562. I also have a Jebs .565 in an SX3 that also throws an amazing pattern. This is with Apex 3" 9's and I have not tried anything else. They are easy to clean, reliable and soft shooting guns. Good luck

This is the one I use the most. 24" barrel in new Bottomland. The receiver is drilled and tapped but I have a Meadow Creek with a FF3 on mine.

Yeah that's the one I had in mind. I either own or have at one time about all of them except for the sx guns. You said you ran a ic .570 in one and an ic .562 in another, does those gun like one particular constriction over the other or do you just choose to run them like that for other reasons?

Love mine! I added a 24" cantilever mount barrel that I had cerakoted to match receiver. Sent the stocks out to be dipped in an old school camo. Added a Holosun 407c green dot and Trulock .575 choke. Also installed a Grumpy Duck titanium bolt handle with a turkey track engraving. Shoots really well with TSS size 8.5 hand loads.

I literally just bought those two chokes to pattern and they each did very good in their guns I just left them be. I figured why waste more TSS when they are patterning this good. The SX4 (with the .570) I have it just the front bead and it shoots dead on. Couldn't ask for a more centered pattern. The other I have a FF3 on.
