835 Tactical Turkey 3 1/2 inch Hevi-13 Number 7

[Todd1700]

If these Hevi-13 7's just don't have the umph to get the job done at 40 yards like some say then I'm just going to have to see a bird walk off from this at 40 yards before I believe it.

Mossberg 835
20 inch barrel
Hevishot Choke
Hevi-13 3 1/2 inch number 7
40 yards
285 in 10 inches



Just for fun I tacked up a Primos turkey head target and gave it a blast at 40. Centered it pretty well. 34 pellets in head or neck "BONE". If you count every pellet that drew blood it was in the 80's.

Can't wait to conduct a field test on a gobblers head.

Todd, if you center one up like that you will be pleased with the performance on a bird.

I shot at bird at 40 and another at 42 last year and I had no problems. My 835 put up high 260's with the exact load so you should be fine.
