Default RE: Turkey Loads

Spit-n-Drum,I also shoot a 10 and reload my own turkey loads.Last year I loaded a few #2's and killed my last longbeard of the spring season with one of them.The load patterned about the same % as my #4's.4's are what I prefer to shoot,because I get about an 84% pattern at 30 yards traveling at 1240fps.But I'll tell ya one thing those 2's just hammered that longbeard.Even though you have extra downrange energy shooting 2's dont expect a better pattern than 6's or 4's.At least this is what I've found out shooting 3 different shell manufactures loads of #2's.Try it on paper yourself and see what you think.
