I'd get an extra full choke, and start with Win XX 3" #6 Turkey Loads. Bought mine at Dick's for $12 per box of 10. I'm guessing they'll do the trick out to 40 yds. IMO, no need to spend crazy money on shells for that distance.

What about 2 3/4 BB shot? $12.50 for a box of 25. What are some good chokes for $35 or less?

Check out these chokes.

What shotgun are you using?

I highly recommend the Winchester Long beards with a choke about .670.

I don't like taking shots over 20 yards. As of late it has been 10 to 15 yards......the closer the better.

But that is just me.

I am using a Remington 887. I can only use 870 chokes on it. It's a fun gun and very soft shooting and is great for me because of shoulder issues. Another thing about range is I will be in the woods so none of my shots will be over 25 yards most likely. I will check out those chokes.

I wanted to thank everyone for their help and advice. Tomorrow is youth opener and next weekend full season opens. Hopefully next Saturday goes well. Wish me luck.

Wear a face mask and gloves. And when you're standing still to listen keep your arm movements to a minimum. No unnecessary pointing, waving or whatever.
