RE: Undertaker HELP!!!
I have a box with at least 5 or 6 chokes in it and about 15 boxs of turkey loads laying around... You just might have to spend a little money to find the right combo... What works in my gun might not work in yours...
What kind of gun are you shooting????

RE: Undertaker HELP!!!
Ijust got back from shooting. Lat night I bought some Win HV #5, Rem Nitro Turkey #5, and Fed Flite Control #5. I also had some Win HV #6, and Rem Duplex. All these loads shot much better. The results at 30yds:Rem Duplex=15 hits H/N Rem Nitro= 18 Hits H/N Federal Flite Control=10 H/N Win HV #5= 16 H/N
I didn't get to shoot the Win HV #6 at 30. I hope to do that tomorrow. I will shoot the Duplex at 40 yds. These patterns are a lot better than they were, but there is still some time before my season starts. Hopefully I will be able to improve some more. Any suggestions?

RE: Undertaker HELP!!!
Try a box of Nitro Hevi-Shot and your search will be over. I know they are a little pricey but how many rounds does one shoot each year after he gets his gun patterned?
We have maybe 600 or 700 invested in a turkey gun and then let a buck or 2 keep us from shooting the best ammo thru it?

RE: Undertaker HELP!!!
I bought a pack of the nitro tri plex loads and shot them out of my 11-87 SPT with 5 different chokes and they shot no better than any of the other good loads that I patterned.... If your going to go the nitro route you miles well get the Rhino choke also....
Dude you can spend a !@#$ load of money trying to get the perfect pattern...
How many vital hits are you getting at 40 yards???
