Managed to pick one up in black with a 22" barrel and going to use 3" Long Beards. Have quite a few chokes already am curious as to what's working. Any help will be appreciated!!!
In case anyone is curious as to why I mentioned Long Beards, quite simply, they are great loads for my style of hunting and I have a dozen or so boxes of them...

Like most guns, they are all about the same. I have (4) 1300 NWTF turkey guns.. I use the factory x full a lot of the time since most my shots are within 30 yards in the thick Fla junk. When hunting out west, I use a little tighter choke for a longer poke.
I wouldn't be concerned about chokes.. shooting lead anything is your biggest restriction. I would shoot #7 HEVI shot at min.. TSS even better.

Jellyhead .660 on the end of my 1300. Shoots #5 lead and #7 Hevi lights out.
A quality paddle caller will most run itself. It just needs someone to carry it around the woods.

Indian Creek or Jebs. They are the ones winning the NWTF shooting championships every year with those shells. If you have the Jebs I'd say your good.
