Just returned from the range after checking out the pattern of #5 Winchester Turkey loads at approx. 35 yards , extremely satisfactory . These shells were fired from my 870, 28 inch barrel. On way back I thought , why not use my 11- 87 deer slayer and use the shorter barrel (20") with the Primos Turkey choke. I like the shorter barrel.
Any opinions , as what the pattern would be like at approximately 35 yds . At this point I may switch my shells to Remington Hevi Shot - no time to go back to the range.
Keep in mind most of the powder is burnt within 18 to 20 inches
Any comments would be appreciated - thanks.
