Winchester 1300 choke/ammo suggestions

[WildSpur]

My 1300 with a kicks .655 would get in the 130 ' s with Winchester hv #6.  Can't wait to see what it will do with the longbeards.

Funny thing.  The guy asks for chokes/loads and says NO HEVI as he doesn't want to spend a ton of money on a gun that isn't his and more than 75% of the replies are "I shoot hevi, blah, blah, blah..."   To the OP, the choke you have should work well with the Federal FC wad loads, just like William said.  Another load you should be looking at is the New Winchester Longbeard lead loads.  They're putting up some rediculous patterns on every board I frequent and if you keep your shots ethical, like you should be, there isn't a turkey that wals that will survive a hit from either load inside of 40 yards.

Your putting words in his mouth/quote.

He wrote :

"I'd like to shy away for shooting hevi for now $$."

which means to me he MIGHT consider it.

Haha.  Nobody get worked up here.  I want to "shy away" from hevi, because I don't want to tell my bro in law that he is stuck buying expensive shells in the future.  I'm helping him out and trying to get him started, so I'm footing the bill for most of it now (vest, A call, choke, shells, thermacell..).  If I could get him setup with a good lead load, then it will be much easier on his pocket in the future.  I know I know, he'll only shoot a box a year at most and blah blah, but he loves to hunt and he is on a very serious budget.  I shoot hevi, and I love it, but I'd rather see him shoot lead.  I like ALL of the feedback so far.  Once this godforsaken winter eases up, we will shoot some different shells and report back.  Thanks gents.
