Default RE: Best Choke Tube & Shotgun Combo 40+ yard shot?

Cutting thier heads clean off at 12 paces (last years turkey) is a good time, but hunt turkeys long enough and you'll have a 20 lb. bird hang up around 40-45 yards and come no further. It's even worse when you have to not shoot because you're not sure that you're equipment will perform at those distances.

It's like Adrian said, I can get 'em into 20 and under.....but if they don't play I know my gun can reach out and tag 'em anyway.

Very good that it's been said not to follow everything you see in a video. Not only does the camera lens make things look like they are further away, but that camera man is very rarely sitting next to the hunter. Most times the camera is a good 10-20 yards behind the shooter, as to not screw up the hunt.
