I use my waterfowl gun, Beretta Extrema (fully camoed of course).


Works great on turkeys with 3.5" #4's and extra full turkey choke.

Right now I'm using a Browning 3 1/2 inch Gold, with a 26 in barrel. But I sold it today and will be buying a Browning Maxus with a 26 in barrel.

Just customized my Mossberg 500. Switched deer barrel with my XXXX choked, 18 1/2" turkey barrel, added a 2x30 red dot scope and switched to my special ops pistol grip and retractable stock. 6 shot capacity, shooting Federal 3" #5's. Its camo'ed in Realtree APG. What a fun gun to shoot! sorry for the blurry pic, but I just took it with my Blackberry and it takes horrible pictures. I have pictures that show what it will do at 18 steps (see post titled "2 down, 1 to go")

Bible_Man 05-02-2011 07:45 AM

Changed early on this season from an 870 Super Mag (which I loved, just had a longer barrel causing me to catch just about every limb in the woods) to a Mossberg 835 thumbhole stock, 20" barrel with a jellyhead choke.

turkey harvester 05-02-2011 07:53 AM

Shootin a Mossberg ulti-mag with #6 3 1/2 winchester loads. Deadly combo.

dirt1008 05-02-2011 02:20 PM

I also use the Winchester super x2, great gun!, with a 28" barrel,yea it's long but it was a gift and who complains. I have an undertaker choke and use the Winchester supreme high velocity 3-1/2 #5's. Taken two birds over 50 yards with it this one last week actually.

Either my Ithica 37 or my Marlin XL7, depending on whether or not I'm sniping hogs at the same time.

Divenut2 05-07-2011 03:43 PM

Just did my first turkey hunt and bagged a nice 20 pounder (link to pics below) with my old Mossberg 500, 28' ventilated rib, full choke. She's not real pretty but has put lots of meat in the freezer in the past 20 + years.
