10-4. I'll save this one for another flag.

What about 20ga #9 74yds?

Just shoot one part every day or so and be patient.. works every time.

Ok. You sir, are going to fit in here.

You don't need anything other than a moped to get back and forth to work....Everyone agrees to disagree. I was just wondering if they would cycle from the magazine to the chamber and how much to trim. How much money one should waste on shooting turkeys should be solely up to himself. I'm with you. ...

Contact Hawglips on this site. He will sell you the shot and give you load recipe and components list. Don't think about 3.5" shells. You won't need them. He has a 3-2-9 load that is very good and efficient load.

I'm right with you. How ever some still want big payloads. I know there are 2oz 2 3/4" loads and heavier 3" loads. When you go to 3,5" there has to be too much crap in the hull and wad to really want to deal with. If I recall a 3" wad will hold over 3oz of TSS and 3 1/2" wad...

Shouldn't matter. There is no need for a 3.5" TSS round. You can get all you could possibly need in 3". At least 5 or 6 years ago Hal had a 3" 2 3/16 oz load. I know he has something else newer.

Yep. There are a ton of guys who started with super tight, high count 10" patterns who missed enough birds that they went back and opened up a bit.

Hard to tell. It would help to see a 10" and 20" circle and count. Many think great 10" numbers are the ****. A 10" circle has 78sq". A 20" circle minus the 10" circle has 214sq". For me 235/250 would be great. 250/250 would be perfect. Over 300 in the 10"...

Have not heated it up any yet. Just made a batch and still have 2 qts. Will heat up next time. I don't really worry about storage as I give some away each batch I make. I seal them in mason jars. It was really good on wings but does need some more heat for them. George, take some of your squirrel or...

Sights. When wing shooting fit and shims work. When sighting down a vent rib and a bead sight shims won't help. You can have what you want, but sometimes a small sacrifice is needed.

I don't know. 239/278 in a super short barrel. Not sure it gets any better. In a barrel that short you have limited ability to calm the shot down to create a "great pattern".

GnG
As a general rule the longer the barrel the less constriction you have to have to get good patterns it's certainly not a guarantee. Also as a general rule TSS needs less constriction than other shots to get the good patterns you will be looking for.

Oh I know NC is where the biggest comes from. La has sooo many and they are mean!!!!! If we ever really go after ISIS, I say we send La redfish holding straight razors. It would be over in a week.

I understand, but just cause coon asses have a different name don't mean they ain't crappie. Hell, if y'all called redfish, tuna, I would too. La is the redfish capital of the world. I call em what y'all call em.
