Buzz, if I were shooting a flat of turkey loads a season, cost would be a factor. However, a three bird limit in Georgia is 3 shells. Shell costs to a turkey hunter is way down the list in expense. I can load 39 13/16 or 36 7/8 oz. .410 shells or 20 1 5/8 oz. 20 ga. shells with two pounds of TSS. My last purchase delivered was $116 for two pounds.
Around here, there has been a shift from 12 gauge by many knowledgeable hunters because of TSS and other tungsten based loads. Many go to 20 gauge or smaller. If someone can carry and shoot a 20 gauge weighing 5.5 lbs or a .410 weighing 3 lbs., 4 oz. and it is just as effective as a 12 gauge weighing 8-9 lbs shooting our granddad's lead shells at 40 yards, the move to subgauge is more understandable. I stopped carrying my SBE over 9 seasons ago and traded it away and gave a young friend my 835. Gil

 I shot these today it was a little windy and I shot these targets standing off a shooting stick. It's a lowly Remington Wingmaster Magnum. Pretty light weigh gun even an old wAsh women should be able to tote one of these... It's a left hand gun with a 26" Remchoke barrel with a Patternmaster Code Black Goose tube about a .710 constriction....3" Winchester Longbeard 1&3/4 oz of #4 shot $19 for 10 shells....laser range 40, 30 and 20 yards...(left to right)...I know it's probably not enough pellets to suit you fAiry dust boys but plenty good enough to kill a bird as dumb as a turkey....and I shouldn't be picking a lot of dust sized pellets out of my meat. Everyone I know who is still shooting lead is shooting Winchester LB. They are all using 20 gauges and using either Indian Creek, Pure Gold, Sumtoy or Jebs chokes. Some are using 5's and some are using 6's. They are getting amazing patterns at 40 yards.

Did you not see the title of the thread or watch the video Stan? The video guy states he likes the .410 and TSS for the ‘challenge’. Be real man. You and BrentD deserve one another, birds of the same feather. 
Socialism is almost the worst.

Tut I'm not shooting a turkey choke...I could be but I don't see a need in it.
I stopped chasing the elusive "10" circle" several years back...how many pellets do you think it takes to kill a turkey ?
Tut I talk turkey with people all over the country most are scared to tell about their bad experiences with small shot on the internet for fear of ridicule and attack...no joke.

I'll engrave it "Doublegun wAsh women of the year". Frank, you are too funny. You remind me of my 4 year-old grandson when he gets cranky.

You and BrentD deserve one another, birds of the same feather. You're getting as dense a your mentOr, buzz. Nothing in the title of this thread, nor the video, pushes anybody else to use it. That is what I said. Both of them are commenting on what they like, not what you should use, bUzz. Talking about density ............. SRH
May God bless America and those who defend her.
