Default RE: Anyone use the smokepole on turkey?

I shoot a Knight TK2000, and highly recomend it to anybody considering a front stuffer for turks. They come with a screw in full choke, yet the choke dosent have to be removed to load it...[ most you have to remove the choke first ]. With the shot cups you can order from Knight you can shoot up to 2 1/4 oz of lead shot, and they throw a real nice pattern. Hunted with the lead shot for a few years... Then after reading up on HeviShot I thought Hummmmmm. just maybe...Got a box of Remington Hevishot 3 1/2" #6's and gutted them out for a test drive ... [ didn't want to shell out the mucho $$$ for bulk Hevishot and have the TK2000 not shoot it real well !!! ]
Now my pet load for the TK2000 is 100 grains of FF, then a TK 3" shot cup, then 2 5/8 oz of #6 Hevishot [ remember HeviShot is heavier then lead ] then 2 styrofoam shot cards on top to keep it all togeather.
After shooting the TK2000 and knowing how it handle's the HeviShot... It's definately not your average smoke pole "Scatter gun"... THIS FRONT STUFFER WILL FLAT OUT " SMOKE " A TURKEY !!!

In a word...WICKED !!!
