Default RE: remington 870 shell and choke combo

Used a 870 SPS-T last season and took 8 gobblers in 4 states. Used a MAD SuperMax and Nitro 4x5x7 HeviShot. As I've previously posted, everyone should check out www.nitrocompany.com and read under "Proper Test Patterning." This will shed some light on the energy needed to kill a turkey. Patters are only half of the equation. Your shot must travel at a velocity great enough to produce the energy required for penetration and a clean kill.

Just got a Browning Gold 10ga in the new Duratouch finish. Ordered a Rhino and Nitro Ammo for it. Will post results in a couple of weeks.
