At 40 yards? Shear the head right off with a 20 ga.? Come on Kevin, I think we are exaggerating just a bit. Not trying to knock you bud, but 40 yards should be about the max. range for a 20 ga. period, certainly not knocking off head range.True, you don't need the heavier than lead loads to kill a turkey, and a 20 ga. will kill turkeys just fine at a reasonable range,but that extra down range energy can help at many times. At longer ranges, they will outperform any lead load. If you limit your shots to 35 yards or closer, it really doesn't matter that much. I use them, and like many turkey hunters, I won't go back to lead. Kdsberman, the Xtended range is a good shell. The best pattern I have gotten with my Jellyhead choke is with the Rem. Wingmaster HD's. They are kind of hard to find though. I currently use the Rem. Hevi shot Magnums, but they don't make them anymore. This is unfortunate, becausethey are pretty awesome. I stay away from Hevi 13's. They just don't pattern well at all with my setup, regardless of what color they are. That doesn't mean they won't pattern well with yours though. I've never tried Nitro, but I hear people swear by them all the time, so they must be pretty good.I did find some Rem. Hevi shot mags. this weekend at a local sporting goods store. They were 3 inch and I use 3 1/2. They had a bunch of boxes though. They were I believe$26 or $27 for a box of ten. They had a surplus of these a few years ago and still have some left.
