I need some advise. It looks like I may need to buy a grandkid a 20 ga for turkey season. I know zero about the TSS shot. What is the recommended choke for that type of shot?
Thanks

Factory full or even modified shoot great with tss in most guns, especially if you're looking for a little bigger "hunting" pattern for a youth.
If you don't load your own, or know someone who does, I would suggest a higher end shell like Apex or Boss. Skip the offerings from Federal, Remington, etc.

My grandson shoots an 870 20 ga with a modified choke. #9 TSS Been good so far
Look at Trulock in a 585 with Apex number 9's. You won't regret it.
Excellent combo. Foxtrot Ammo is very good too.

Thanks guys. Appreciate it.
the good news is 20 gauge unlike 12 gauges all have the same basic bore diameter which means a 575 is a 575 in almost all of them.
Indian Creek are tried and true with a lot of following behind them for their results with TSS, however they are pricey
Carlsons 575 is one the best for the $ IMO
Try the factory full first and see if it meets your expectations, with TSS being expensive its not fun trying different ones to find out though lol.
I cant speak to factory TSS offerings though, Ive loaded my own for a long time now.

I'm getting a pretty good pattern with my Trulock #9 with Federal 9s out of my Retay. Really tight close 25 yards and in so he has to aim, not point.
SUMTOY chokes. Top notch chokes and top notch service.
what kind of gun are they going to be using? I would recommend Apex or Rouge ammunition, both are small business and are not mass produced like federal or Remington. Indian creek or jebs choke tubes or carlsons would be a good recommendation for a good pattern. Even a factory full would be good for a youth hunter.
