Be careful! Many of today's Turkey Loads are designed to maximum capabailties of our shotguns and clearly is NOT a STANDARD hunting load.
3 to 4 boxes of #4 shot to #6 shot high brass I can see.

3 to 4 boxes of 3.5 inch Turkey rounds used all in one time will knock you into the next century.

Informing a potential new user to do just that? Man.......do be careful.

JW,

Whattttt ????

"3 to 4 boxes of 3.5 inch Turkey rounds used all in one time"

Whom may I ask mentioned 3 to 4 boxes ??? you maybe !



"Informing a potential new user to do just that?"

Are you reading a "little bit" too much into this ???


3 to 4 boxes ?!?!

I bought my SBE II about six years ago and it happened to be early spring before turkey season. I didn't think much of it then, but the first rounds through the gun were turkey loads. I patterned a couple different boxes of 3in. mags maybe 10-15 rounds total. The gun has pretty much been flawless. It failed to cycle a second round last December on pheasant in SD, but it was below 0 and I probably didn't get all the excess oil wiped out. Just my observations.

Sorry Sheridan but I was reading it as if I was a brand new shooter! Thus my warning.

You posted the user SBE instructions which clearly states "3 or 4 boxes" and then you mention "I patterned Turkey Loads." So, put two and two together if you where a brand new shooter ~ go back and read it again as if you where a new shooter.

I was just warning a potential new user/shooter that 3.5 inch turkey loads hurt! A Turkey Load is NOT a Standard Hunting Load.

I would recommend the HeviShot waterfowl combo pack
for your SBE II. You will get both a mid range and an
extended range choke tube in that pack. They are super.
