If you are wanting to shoot lead only, there are two chokes that you should try. I personally use a Kicks .695 and a Comp N Choke XX Full (.705). I also shoot number 4 shot (Win XX Mag. (3.5/2.25/4) and Win. HV (3.5/2/4)). I know 4 shot doesn't look the best on paper but if used within effective range (for me that is 40 yds. as it should be) it will put a serious thumping on a turkey. If I want to get serious I throw in my Rhino .685 and some Nitro Co. 3 oz. Ni Pb #4s. I hope this helps.
