Default RE: remington 870 shell and choke combo

I have an 870 with a 26 inch barrel and I use the factory Super Full Turkey Choke. I shoot regular Remington High Velocity #5's out of it and it patterns VERY well. I have never had a turkey leave after I pulled the trigger. If youc an sweet talk em and get em to <40 yards, a head shot with a 410 will kill em. I know people are big on Hevay SHot and Nitro loads, but regular shells are MUCH cheaper and kill just as well. You don't need penetration if you shoot em in the head.
