Well for me. Call them to less than 20 yards and it dont matter what shot size you use. What gauge shotgun you use IF YOU HAVE PATTERNED CORRECTLY.
At 20 yards the cheapest 2 3/4 shot gun round works. I dont care who made it
And you save money over that high priced turkey rounds.
But that is me and the goal I use to Turkey hunt. Less than 20!

Yes, any shot shell would work at that range, and any choke as well. The only trouble is, not every turkey will come that close, especially one's that have been hunted hard or shot at before. I can see that the challenge would be to try to get them at a close range of less than 20 yards, the con to that would be that a lot of times you would have turkey's that will mark their spot at 40-50 yards and won't come any closer for whatever reason. Those days, you go home empty handed, where a well patterned turkey gun and shotshell combination will still fill that tag.
