I beleive you can shoot them that far.My longest shot is 72yds.I only got 3 pellets in the neck,but I got him.I shoot turkeys every year @ 45-56 yds.I guess I am lucky enough to have found a choke/shell combination.That's why I went back to my 3.5" Winchester HV #4's.I try to shoot @30,but I know my gun will flatten them out easily @60yds.

SO,you get 180-200..or 320 hits whatever it is.It'smostly small shot!.The nitro loads are mostly hevi #7's.I saw the pellet count at Jesse's hunting site.390 #7's out of 553 pellets?The restare 4's,and 5's.That doesn't impress me.Those 7's don't hit like my 4's.I have more 4's in my shell than there are 4's and 5's combined in the 4x5x7 nitro load.I may not have the # of hit's,but will take bird for bird against a nitro load.There's difference between poking holes in paper,and poking holes in the necks/wingbones/legs of turkeys.But if you are satisfied with the $ that you spent,and it gives you that much more confidence...That's all that matters.
