Hunting on USFS lands and no rifles of any kind are allowed but with that being said there is nothing more exciting than calling in and decoying a tom and taking him with a shotgun.

I sure hope the TruLock choke and Federal Heavyweight loads work for you. They replaced the Nitro Ammo loads I have used for years. They hit like Thor's hammer.
George at TruLock cut me a choke for my SP-10 so I can use my 10 gauge Federal Heavyweight loads. The pattern looks really good and can't wait till spring to try it out on some gobblers.

Wind was really high this afternoon and at about 6 bucks per shot for the Heavyweight 7's I want to wait for a more optimal time to shoot them.

Just incase your interested Remington makes a replacement Turkey Barrel for the 870 . A little expensive but I've heard it's well worth the money if you do a lot of Turkey hunting or even grouse or pheasant hunting . Check it out : Rem 870 Turkey Barrel
