I acquired a new to me Stoeger M3500 w/26" barrel. I have a Mossberg 835 that I've used turkey hunting, but was wondering what would a good choke/shot combo to try in the Stoeger. I've only used Winchester Supreme in the past and only plan on using lead unless someone can convince me to switch to expensive HeviShot type shot. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

It is a small bore gun that will most likely shoot with 650 to 660.  It will like the Winchester and HV13 shells.

I'm leaning towards a SumToy...I see you giving advice regularly & think it's better to support someone like you.

I have a 3500 with a 26" barrel. The sumtoy 650 and Hevi 656 shot the best from mine with Hevi #7 and Magblends with magblends being the overall best.

i shot an Indian Creek 665, Pure Gold 670 and Kicks as well and those 2 were the best in my gun.

Hundreds of shooters have had excellent results with the SSX in those guns with a variety of shells. The Hevi-13s are by far the best however.

The Benelli/Stoeger barrels seem to be made just for the SSX turkey chokes.
