Been using #1 and 00 3" in my SBE while hunting whitetail in Tuskegee AL. with the full choke with good results, but got the Kick's BUCK KICKER X-FL.680 with OUTSTANDING results if at all possible you can go here and purchase at a fair price if you want to go with a aftermarket tube..

Bone I believe it,but I shot a tom today with the Win. HV 6's at about 24-5yards with that kick's choke and good GRACIOUS I freaked OUT after seeing how that tom responded after I put tha POW on him he looked like a cartoon character after I shot him.Originally posted by dahambone:SBE+M.A.D. Max Turkey Choke+Winchester HV 6's, 5's, & 4's = Dead turkeys.....believe me....its unbelievable.
I also shoot a Nova...with a Primos Jellyhead Choke tube with Winchester HV 6's......whoa....shot my bird this year at 15 yards...and he hit the ground DEAD.....just about blew his head off.......it was of of the most spectacular things I have seen....Primos wasn't lying when they named their choke "Jellyhead".

Shell your right on with tha fill and fit on a shotgun, my buddy has tha 912 also and LOVES it he also says there's no other shotgun better but I beg to differ being that I have tha SBE;) .Originally posted by shell waster:Both great choices. the age old question, which one feels better,fit pull etc. The SBE is easier to clean. If you decide on the SBE, I would consider the SBE II. My duck buddy has the Franchi, it has never failed and he swears by it. I have the SBE and would never trade. A tough call.

The weather here in OK has been the same I been having them answer but not coming,they are hooked up with tha hens and it's been hard to get them to me I will be trying them again this weekend.Originally posted by turkeycalln:Turkey season just opened up the past weekend. The weather has been changing from warm one day to cold the next and lots of ran. The turkeys have been very active but just don't want to talk at all. I've heard only one tom gobble one time since the season opened. Other people in the area are having the same problem.
Does anybody have any ideas? Could it just be the weather?

Thanks Duk.Originally posted by DUKFVR:I've had great results with the WWSwat with HS. The Supreme didn't give me the patterns or results in the field I was looking for.

Have anyone tried these on their SBE if so how do you like them,what brand of ammo,and which shot #.Thanks in advance.

Groundhog I called Chuck at kick's and he told me to use the .655 G/T with the Winchester HV #6 3" shot,and .660 G/T with the Winchester HV#6 3 1/2" I got pretty good results at 30 yards with the .655,but didn't try the #6 3 1/2 with the .660 being that the 3" whipped my tail. I will be trying the wadwizard choke after I do some research.Originally posted by Groundhog:I am really confused and need, welcome some wisdom and counsel.
I've been using Win HV#5s with a Kick's Gobblin Thunder .660 choke ... recommended by Kick's ... with only so-so pattern.
Despite not being recommended
... I recently tried the Rem Hevi-Shot #5's with this set-up and it was outstanding at 25 yards and at 40 yards as well. 
Is this dangerous? Why is it not recommended? Should I be concerned?
I can't afford time or $ to do all the variations many suggest. HELP!

Well said.Originally posted by FloridaHunter:There is no hope, unless you call the hens to you, but even then most of the time the hens come sit in your lap and the gobbler just struts around just out of range. You have to wait untill later in the season when the gobblers are henless and are cruising around befor you can really call them in.

I have to agree the 3 inch do kick like H;LL,got me scared TOO DEATH to shoot tha 3 1/2. I have not tried them with my SIMS pad yet but I will this weekend.

My SBE didn't come in today but will be in here in the morning all I can say is you get what you pay for from what I've heard from other Benelli owners.Originally posted by rookie:OK, thanks to everyone who replied to help clarify things. SBE is still looking good ... Yes, there's a big difference in price X2 is at $1000 Cdn and $1800 Cdn at one store!

That is AWESOME mine will be in tomorrow,and I can't WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Originally posted by Scott:I just got 'my' dream gun yesterday, a 24" camo Super Black Eagle. I couldn't wait to take it out today and pattern it for the upcoming turkey season. I have had some bad experiences with auto's in the past and was worried, but what a gun!!! It cycled everything that I put in it from 2 3/4 to 3 to 3 1/2...... My manual suggests putting a few boxes through it before I try the light loads.
Anway, heres my setup. Today I shot Remington Hevi-shot, 3 1/2 inch, 1300 fps, # 6 with a Briley .675 Hevi-shot choke.
(using an actual size turkey head target)
30 yards - 51 pellets in head & neck
50 yards - 28 pellets in head & neck
70 yards - 19 pellets in head & neck (I aimed right on, but noticed that if I had aimed a little higher, I would have had even better results)
I was very, very pleased and was shooting free-hand with no rest.

I'm just scared to shoot it because of reading this.

Can I use my current Remington shotgun/choke with new Hevi-Shot Turkey Loads?
Yes. Remington has extensively tested Hevi-Shot through various Rem-Chokes. The top-selling choke, diameter and resulting Hevi-Shot pattern percentages are as follows:
Ventilator (.655") 87% 30" circle, 40 yards
Full - Lead Only (.691") 88% "
Full - Lead or Steel (.691") 88% "
Turkey Extra Full (.687") 92% "
Turkey Super Full (.665") 93% "
NEW Hevi-Shot (.675") 94% "
Tighter chokes than .665" do not improve pattern percentages to any extent and in fact begin to produce more open patterns.
Hevi-Shot can produce cosmetic rub marks in barrels and chokes, simply a change in surface finish. Over an equal number of rounds, this rubbing is similar to that experienced with steel shot. Both materials create more choke strain than lead shot due to a more solid payload. With the Remington wad column, the Hevi-Shot pellets rest on a cushioned pad in the shot container that allows the pellets to flow better through the choke. In addition, the Remington Hevi-Shot shot container is much thicker than previous Hevi-Shot loaded rounds and that thickness minimizes pellet contact with the barrel or choke.
