Best choke I have found for lead. Remington 870 and kicks .655 is hard to beat. Have harvested the majority of my turkeys with Kicks .655, Win XX Magnum 3/ 1 5/8/ 6's, Win XX 3/2/6's,                       Win Supreme 3/ 1 7/8/ 6's, Hevi 13 3/2/7's. It's rare when you have a set up that will shoot this many loads with 120+ in a 10 @ 40 and 220-240 with Hevi 13 7's and no POA/POI changes. No resight just load the gun and hunt.

My .660 has been excellent with lead 5's and lead 6's along with hevi13 6's and 7's.

Kicks 665 in my 870 using xtended range 6 shot
Kicks 680 in my SX3 Longbeard XR using Longbeard XR 6 shot
Maxus didn't like the 680 as it preferred the Hevishot 664 tube.
The tube in my 870 has been shot so many times it isn't funny.  Going strong since January 2004.

I dont use one now but my 1st dedicated turkey gun was a Beretta 391 Urika 3" ,shooting 3" Win.high velocity 1.75oz. #4s paired with a Kicks GT .655 I put 98% of the ENTIRE pattern on a 22" squared piece of paper....I believe most folks steer clear of them because they give a WRITTEN WARNING to NOT USE ANY HTL PRODUCTS.... however , I have shot my old one quite a bit with Hevi-shot and I know several people who still do,with no damage. HOWEVER....I AM NOT ENCOURAGING ANYONE TO USE THEM OTHER THAN THE WAY KICK'S ADVISES!!!!!

I am using the Kicks GT .680 in my mossberg 835 using Winchester 3.5"/2oz/#5 HV. At 40 yds I am averaging around 130-140 in a 10" circle with even pattern coverage across the whole target and at 20yds all pellets are in about a 12" pattern.

The first gun I bought with my own money when I was young was a dedicated turkey gun, an 835.  I put a .680 gobbling thunder in it and it shot anything I ever feed it without poi changing.  It was the least picky combo I ever had.

I have several. My Benelli SBE2 currently has one in it. It shoots Winchester HV 5s and Hevi 7s very well. My Mossberg 500 shoots Winch HV 5s and old Double X 6s fairly well.
