Default turkey loads test

Ifinally got the time to test some loads. they were all shot from the tc encore with with 90 grs of bm3,variflame primer,tc choke and 1 3/4 of hevi shot 6s. I think the turkeys in brown county this year are in TROUBLE!!

I really like the variflame system. Did some tests with that and 209 Winchester black powder primers. The variflame moved a shot cup about 3" were the 209s made it all the way up to the choke tube!!

WOW!! that 30 yard pattern is good. Plenty of shot in the right places. I think you should have no problem taking a turkey with that one.
