Re: bead or scope
I use Williams universal slugger sights. They look really out of place on the barrel - close to ugly but they make shooting a turkey very easy.
Re: bead or scope
No beads/ 2 shotguns w/ Nikon VSD red dots/2 w/ Star Dots/1 w/ flourescent green dot and ghost ring/ setting up a new gun w/ a Vortex Venom. My tired old eyes really like a red dot type aiming device which precludes having a multifocal sighting plane.
Re: bead or scope
bead, except .410 because the pattern is so small and not centered near bead

Re: bead or scope
Switched to a truglo gobble stopper red dot scope on my stoeger P350 pump this year. After sighting it in I like that my pattern is centered where the dot is. Last year I shot a turkey while slipping down a logging road and lost him. My gun at the time shot a little to the right and I didn’t account for that I just went on auto pilot

Re: bead or scope
I've used beads for all hunting in the past, but just recently added a Vortex Venom on one of my shotguns for this season.

Re: bead or scope
Been shooting TSS for almost a decade (9 years). IMO it patterns too tightly for beads. I use FF IIIs. They are fast with a great field of view and only weigh an ounce. I like lightweight turkey guns and don't care to lug around the extra weight of a scope.

Re: bead or scope
I run fiber optic rifle sights or double beads currently. I have ran red dots in the past but only briefly.
I hope to be running at least one red dot by next season.

Re: bead or scope
It took me a long time to come around, but put a FFII on a .410 last year. Liked ot so much I picked up a FFIII and just drilled/taped my 12 gauge this week.
