Is there anyone who could Pm me/maybe speak w/ meon phone with what you are doing for 10 ga. handloads, very interested in doing this. I am an experienced rifle/pistol loader, but need advice about components & loads for shotgun. Any help appreciated. Thanks, Mike

Get Lyman's 5th edition and start there. I load for waterfowl, but unless I can scare up a TSS recipe (I have asked and no one is willing due to liability I guess) I see no value in loading my own for turkey. There are too many good off-the-shelf options out there - even for a 10 - to make it cost or performance effective. My 2 cents.

OK, my problem is that I live in NY, stores arent stocking anything & we cant order online anymore. Thought I would load some. No one seems willing to share? Mike

Like I said - Get Lyman's 5th edition - there are several lead loads in there. I think Alliant poweders even has one or two posted on line.

If you go to
www.ballisticproducts.com
, and look in their archived load of the week section, you will find some heavy 10 gauge 2.5oz. lead loads. It was posted on 04/08/2011 and is titled Turkey Loads.
