Mossberg 835 shooters

[turkey buster]

I shoot a Mossberg 835 and have for 20 years.  I shoot a factory Mossberg extra full choke.  I shoot the Winchester Supreme 3.5 2 ounce number 4's(black shell).  I honestly don't know what the pellet count is at 40 yards.  I really don't care.  It will kill the piss out of a turkey.  I have never polished the barrel and rarely clean the gun.  It performs flawlessly.

I like the way you think

I'm shooting a ssx and 3.5 #6 longbeards in my 935 but the factory ultimag xx with remington nitro #4's was a good shooter and a lot cheaper

Any quality choke in the .670-.690" range and about any quality lead or HTL load you want to pick.  The 835/935 will virtually always pattern a much wider array of load/choke combos than any other gun.  I know it bugs the Mossberg haters, but facts is facts.  Been shooting them since they were put on the market and in that time I have not found a single gun other than a 10 gauge that can match an 835.

That's what I'm talking about Jack!   

I agree totally.

I use to think the same way,until OG of course. Show her a little love. Polish her up and take her on a nice walk. She will be better to you then ever before. 
I've shot mine for a long time as well. I love my mule kicking,fore arm rattling turkey slayer. I wouldn't trade her for the world,way to many memories.

I've got a 1st year 835 that has been shot to hell and back. It was my duck / goose gun / boat paddle for years. It has had thousands upon thousands of rounds ran thru it.

It seems to like the IC choke shooting magblends 5,6,7 shot.

These guns rattle, are kinda ugly, and kick like a mule. But, they just flat shoot. I won't take anything else in the turkey woods.

That would be 1987.

I got mine brand new in 1991.  Never even toted another gun turkey hunting since then.
