Why spend almost $30.00 for a box of 5 shells, when you can get a box of 10 for $17.00? If you go to the pattern range and pattern your gun at various distances, you will end up shooting at the minimum 10 shells or more.When you've got $1500 in a turkey gun, thousands between out of state licenses, leases, and gas costs, whats's $60 in ammo to shoot 8-10 turkeys and another $30.00 to check the zero on your gun after traveling?

Quote from: VaTuRkStOmPeR on March 06, 2016, 04:37:03 PMWhen you're trying to kill one in all 49 states, you're not trying to have to come back to that state. The willingness to kill a 50 yard bird doesn't mean you have the attitude that "By God I'm going to kill something." You won't find me in a blind, you won't find me crawling with some dumbass fan in front of me and you won't find me shooting at a bird at a range my gun hasn't been patterned at. But I am there to punch the tag and I'll be damned if I'd ever shoot a shell that isn't going to help me achieve a kill that I find acceptable.

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkI used 12g Rem Duplex 4X6s and they shot well. My luck they discontinued and then I went to Win Extended Range and they discontinued as well. Now I use 3" HS magnum blends. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So I will keep them for a back up. I'm sure in a 12 gauge they are much better though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
