Re: Best 12 gauge tss load

Hal has a 2.375 ounces 3 inch load that is the best I’ve seen as far as being able to throw a hunting pattern out to the theoretical limits of TSS. Red federal hulls.

Re: apex vs federal

I have not shot Apex but the federal shells I bought rattled like maracas. Out of the 10 shells I had, 3-4 gobblers behaved much more life like than they should have at the distances they were shot. I believe, at least at the beginning of the TSS game, federal just threw some tungsten in shells with...

Re: I quit

Neighbors hunting turkeys out of blinds on three sides means neighbors hunting over scratch.

Plant enough food on your property that they don’t want to leave. During the critical run up to the season feed em. You can set your watch to an early season baited turkey.

Re: Tss shell to shell inconsistency ?

I bought some federal TSS, some rounds would rattle like a maraca. I went back to reloading after that.

Re: Velocity ...fps?

You do lose yardage. A 2.5 ounce blend should be rocking closer to Apex FPS to get the theoretical best penetration at the longest yardage your pattern coukd hold up.

How much? Pulling it out of my rear, 5-10 yards. You could confirm by running it though KPY ballistics

Re: question for turkey hunters

If your not eating the thighs, your passing on the best part of the turkey, next to the heart and liver. Cleaning the boiled legs is a real chore, but for soup, they can't be beat. IMO, just breasting a wild turkey should be cited as "wanton waste", or written up as just plain laziness. Y...
