I use a Win 1300 20" bbl with an aftermarket turkey choke that shoots a good pattern for head hits at approx 50 yds., but hey... at 25 yards its REAL good.

I use a 12 Ga. 11-87 SP with a 28" barrel. It likes Winchester Double X Magnum #6. I would try to shoot one at 35-40 yards , however I try to call them in close. Last year was about 12 yards, the shot worked fine. That was a wild hunt!
