Default RE: 10 gauge or 3.5 12 gauge

3" 12 ga. from the 870 with an extra full Turkey choke mfg by Rem. 47 paces is the longest bird and he was dead quickly. 2 3/4" from the sxs16. Hadn't figured I needed anything bigger yet. Maybe I'll try the 28 this year. LOL Better see if it's legal first.

Hey Gselkhunter- You shooting them Merriams? Let's try something. I believe we both have old 12 sxs Ithaca's. I'll take an Eastern in Ky, or at least try, and you get one of the Colorado birds with yours and we'll post pics of the two showing off the guns that are nearing 90 years old and what they can do. Mine is choked F/Fuller and I'll use some 2 3/4" hevi 5's. Then we could try the 28's.
