Ordered me a pro hunter 20 gauge with 26" barrel. Was wondering how you have yours set up.
What choke?
What shot?
What kind of numbers you getting?
I'm looking to shoot either heavy 7's or if I can afford it some TSS # 9. Was thinking a IC .555 Will go with either a Nikon turkey pro or Burris fast fire.
I know all guns shoot different. Looking for feedback to eliminate some cost. Thanks in advance.

I got a new last year.  Dad killed his first bird this past spring at 35yards.  It has a pg 570, and shoots hevi 7's.  Was putting up 140's at 40 yds.  Got a fast fire II it put on it for this spring.

Shooting an IC 555 with nitro strait 7s in mine. get between 185 and 200 in a 10 inch circle at 40 yards.
The fiber optic sights work just fine for me.

Good info guys. Spursandbeards unreal. Going to have to try the tss for sure now even if I got to get a second job.

I shoot this same setup and get the same numbers ,they must be consistent . My highest count with Nitro 7s is 209

It is nice to hear some feed back on the T/C's. You mostly hear abour Rem's and Mossy's.
Thanks for all of the info.

Was hoping someone would feel sorry for me and let me do some testing for them. ;D
