Some opinions please

Be honest with yourself. If you really don't plan on shooting past 40 yds, and you do most of your killing at 30 yds, LBs would be about my last choice. They are tight at 40, and really tight at 30. I would rather have a plain old lead load of 6s (eg Winch XX) that will put 125/10 at 40 with a nice, forgiving pattern at 30.

Yup, that would be my suggestion. My 870/ Kicks .655 will turn 140's at 40yds. Inside 40yds it's a killer.
No need to look for the magic foo foo dust..it just kills turkeys. Guiding this was what I had my clients use. Signal when turkey is inside 40yds and the majority go home with the turkey. I always try to error on the side of the turkey being too close rather than too far. Good luck.

I was able to open up the pattern on my longbeards considerably by shooting a Wrights #1 Choke (.680) and using 6 shot instead of 5. Shoots a decent pattern at 15 yards and still pretty amazing at 40.

Can you shoot Hevi 13 through a Kicks?

Kicks says no to hevi 13, but yes to the Winchester X range. Go figure. I would and not worry about.

It's fine with either..
