Model 12 Featherweight

[ElkTurkMan]

I have a old Winchester Model 12 featherweight with full choke barrel and chambered for 2 3/4 shells .My goal this spring is to shoot a turkey with it. I am wondering if Fox Trot or Apex Ammo would be safe to shoot out of this gun without damaging it?  I am going to start patterning soon and I already have some lead shells but am very curious about the TSS.  Any advice or input would-be greatly appreciated.

I've shot tss and 15g/cc out of guns from modern, 1960's - 1910 steel and late 1800's Damascus(Damascus wasn't choked tight) without any sign of barrel scouring, scratching  or damage.
These were lower pressure reloads from Hal's recipes.
I have a couple friends that have shot tss #9's out of flintlocks with no plastic shot cup and haven't seen any barrel damage.

I think Foxtrot has a lower payload 12 gauge 2.75" load available. Not sure about the chamber pressures in the Apex loads

Your barrel will be fine only shooting a handful of tss. Foxtrot Mini Twister and Herters both make a 1-5/8 ounce load that I shoot in my Model 12.

Thanks guys for the advice. I have some fox trot ammo on the way.
