I just bought a new gun. Its a 870 express wood grain 12 gauge. I know alot of people have this gun so I was wondering whats a good 3 inch shotshell and choke combination for turkey out to around 50 yrds. Thankx

i use Super Full and Winchester Supreme Shells (black ones)

I use an extra full choke and 3" federal #6's with excellent results.

i use an extra full choke in my 870 with Federal #4's but im switching to Winchester Supreme's in either #5 or #4 i think this spring.

#4s With Extra Full Were Nice To i have one.
The Super Full With Suprems #4 i can shoot 60 Yards + with tight pattern

Hey 270,

I have the 870 Express Supper Mag. I killed three for three last year in GA and totaled over 32 inches of beards. Shortest shot 31 paces longest 47 paces. It was a great season.

I use the Remington Extra Full Choke Tube. (Some reports say not to shoot heavy shot from and extra full c.tube, but it works for me.)
Remington Heavy Shot #4 3inch. ( I would not shoot anything else. I am hooked on the stuff.)
My father and I took some real time before last season to see what my gun shot the best. I found it did not like the 3.5 inch shells at all. Get some turkey head targets, walk of 30 yards, 40 yards, and 50 yards. Sit down just like you would in the woods against a tree and let teh lead fly. Try a few different types of ammo and see witch one your gun shoots the best. BEST OF LUCK IN '05.
