What load and choke are you shooting.

Anyone shot a few loads out of a strut stopper? That is what is currently on my gun and patterns horrible with wiinchester supreme copper plated number 5's.
 
I've got one.

I've got the factory 26" barrel and a Hunter Specialties Undertaker 0.665" choke. Last year I shot the regular 3" Winchester Supreme with #6 shot and it done good up to about 35 yards. The pattern wasn't so good any further than that. I'm trying #5's this year to see if that helps.
 
Yep

870 with a 660 jellyhead

I'm gonna shot nitro's , Xtended range, hevi 13 , and whatever else i can get my hands on in 6 shot. Except the nitro's will be the H378 4x5x7
 
870 SM 26" barrel with a Gobblin Thunder choke .665 & WinSup HiVol. #5's @ 40 yards

i shoot an 870 super. I found IN MINE i shoot 4's the best out of a gobbling thunder choke.

the true glow ported choke patterns pretty well out of it too.

IN MINE federal shells are the worst and Winchester are the best followed by Remington 2nd.
 
I have the Remington 870 specialty turkey gun and I use the factory choke with #5 copper plated Remington shells in 3 1/2. It does well.
 
I shoot 870 super mag, 23 inch barrel. 665 mad max choke. My best pattern is a winchester 3 inch number 4 hv. My gun does not shoot number 5's well. All 3.5 that have shot have yet to out perform 3inch shells. I have not shot the high dollar shells , cant afford them.
 
I am amazed to read so many guys have not had luck with a #5. I shoot a super mag 3.5 inch #5. My barrell loves the 5 over 4 and 6. .665 restriction

660 rhino and nitro H51013 4x5x7 hevi-shot. Im almost afraid to post a pellet count!

Same here...660 rhino does the turkeys good...I have a 870 express magnum with the force-it-cone lengthened and it shoots out to 60 yards...Great combo :cool:
