Anybody test Hevishot turkey loads?

Somebody asked about 1187 barrels on another thread and you flubbed it.
Maybe you should change your screen name to hide the butthurt.
But don't go with a snake one, since you were wrong on that one too.

I've used Hevi 13 #6s 3 1/2" and an Indian Creek choke (.665 I think) in my 870 with great results. 50yd shots are no problem. My wife's 3" 12gauge 870 with a sleeved barrel patterns the #7 HS very well at 40yds. and beyond.

I guess its a no on the turkey sandwich. Thats ok...go ahead starve. Makes no difference to me.

I sure hope you normally do not stalk men often on here...thats just screams weird!

Thanks for the info T3T

I've been running a .665 Superfull Remchoke with HV #4's in 3" since 2002 in a couple of 870 Supermags and now an 1100 SP (previously used a fixed full choke shiny/minty 1100 Magnum and 3" #5's). Didn't like taping the gun up, or pellets in the breast

Tested about a dozen choketubes some time back, got pretty beat up over the course of 2 days. Some a bud had were $$$$ too. Also tried at least 5 different loads, all 3" though.

For the money I found the Remchoke Superfull and the HS Undertaker hard to beat (4 or 5's lead).
Kinda glad it's close to what Hevi Shot recommends for their 5's

Well, this got ugly fast. This kind of crap is what ruins forums. Just sayin.

I got a couple boxes of the Magnum Blend Hevi-Shot on special at the NWTF show.

What I've shot I MUCH prefer my old Ntros 4X5X7s. Pattern is tighter at all distances.

The furthest I've shot the Nitros at a turkey is 52 yards and he was DRT.. I use a rangefinder to make sure that the bird hits that magic 50 yard mark before trigger pull.

This is 3 inch shells with a scoped 870 using a Rhino .665 choke..

Please stay on topic. We all know how forums can get, and why they have ignore features.
