Best Turkey loads for Mossberg 835

[JellyHead Key]

I have my Jelly Head for my Mossberg 835 but I'm just curious if anyone has a 835 with a Jelly Head and what kind of loads y'all have had success with? I'm wanting to pattern my gun this weekend and wanted to try out a few different types. Any suggestions?

3.5" Hevi-13 #6s


I can't remember which lead loads I tried through it but I do remember none really showed up.

That's a pretty strong pattern there! Def have to try those out!

Put the elbow grease into cleaning your barrel! They tend to be pretty dirty straight out of the box.

^ What Deisle said....

I don't know what the best is. However,.....
This is what has worked well for me!
Ol Mossy 24" pipe non ported. Original Realtree camo model.
J.H 690
3-½ Win hv 5's or 6's 2oz(lead) and Red 6's 2-¼oz(lead)xx mag
Great even turkey killing pattern's.
Ooo... and the Win 4's aren't too shabby either 

In my set up now. I shoot the MB-5,6,7 This shoots real well too 

I have not tried the new Win LB..

Win HV 5's 3.5" 2oz., good, even pattern out to 40.  I have a Preston Pittman Bossbuster on mine, essentially a Star Dot.

I have had good luck with an SSX .670 and Hevi-13 3-2-7's.
I may not put up 3.5" shell numbers, but I get right around 200 in the 10" circle at 40, and I don't have a flinch anymore.
Win-win for me.

Where can I get Preston Pittman? I've seen some Star Dots on eBay but I'm unsure if they fake.

Going to pick up some Hevi-13 3-2-7s tomorrow morning!

675 rang choke.  The HV13 7's will go big numbers.  The 6's will be a nice hunting pattern. 
The Fed FCW lead loads work good out the gun as for a cheap load.
The Winchester Long Beard will be the best bang for the buck if you keep it around the 40 yard mark.

I get 140s in 10 inch circle @ 40 with Win XX (red shell) supreme 6s with a mossberg xfull extended tube.

This is the load and choke you need. 

Info is on the target.

Thanks a lot guys. Think Im gonna go with the Hevi-13s

I got mine from a trusted member of this site about 2 years ago.  I will never sell that choke.  It performs really well with 3.5" Hevi-13 7's as well, but I am back to lead due to the cost of Hevi-13.  The hevis averaged in the 230's at 40 for me.  Hevi 6's shot well thru it as well.  If you willing to spend the $$ stick with Hevi Shot.
