I've killed several turkeys with Pb 7.5s @ 1200 fps from the open barrel of my O/U, and I consider 35 yds to be max with that shot size (although I know several folks that say they work fine @ 40 as well). Lead 7.5s drop below 1.25" of predicted ballistic gel penetration at 35 yds. Anything any further than 35 yds gets a face full of TSS 9s.

All I'm going to say is this long bread #6s will kill at 40 yards all day long and I am confident if I have to pull the trigger at that range.50 + yards is unethical to try need to work on ya calling or set up if u can't get him any closer.I say this yet every year I buy a different choke and different shells and hope I can achieve a 30 yard pattern at 50+ yards and for some unknown reason end up right back where I started.lmfao
