[Southeast Birds Not Gobling]

Georgia birds have been quiet so far this season, too.

[got my SBE back from getting dipped]

Looks like they did a great job. Nice looking gun!

[2007 Turkey Hunts]

Good luck on the Land Between the Lakes draw, I've heard that's good hunting.

 

I'll be hunting Georgia (my home state) and South Carolina. Who knows, maybe I'll get to work a real road trip in this year.

 

Like mudhen, I'm still shooting. Right know it looks like I'll be using SBE2, Jellyhead, Win XR 3 1/2" #6.

 

Good luck to all this season!

Idahoducker - Congrats on a monster bird! Y'all know how to grow 'em out there!

 

Tucker - Sounds like you must have hunted with us Georgia boys before! You got me. ROFLOL

[CA tom....]

Congrats, nice bird!

Got this Georgia mountain bird on 3-31-06 around 7:00 am.

 

He had a 9-1/2" beard and 1-1/8" spurs.

[Jellyhead & SBE II...]

Those are great results, twice as good as I get with the factory full. Thanks again for sharing them and providing the additional info. Sorry, somehow I missed the fact that you were using 3 1/2", I wasn't sure if it was the 3" (1-3/4 oz)or 3 1/2" (2 oz), so again, thanks and sorry if my question was redundant.

 

BTW, I got a nice bird Friday off public land in the Georgia mountains. The weather has been a little uncooperative here, but the birds are starting to gobble now.

 

Best of luck to everyone this season.

Mudhen,

 

A couple of questions on the JH pattern:

 

How many ounces of shot?

How many hits in the 10" circle?

 

Thanks for posting all your patterning results. I find them very helpful.

[New Choke Tubes?]

I e-mailed customer service a few days ago to get recomendations for turkey choke tubes and loads for the SBE2. I didn't get any helpful info, just kind of a generic resoponse, but, they did say the extra-full choke will be available later this year....after turkey season:-(

 

Mudhen, does Briley make the OEM crio choke tubes for Benelli?

[Wow - from the maker of Terror choke tubes.....]

Dalton,

 

Did you try this combo at 40 yards or less? I would be interested in the results if so.

 

Thanks.

[SBE II SLING]

Here's a link to the sling I ordered for my SBE2 last night:

I have examined it in person and it seems to be well padded. It comes with swivels, is available in Advantage Timber and is made in the USA.

[SBE 26" barrrell Turkey Choke Tube]

Thanks,

 

That's exactly the info I was looking for.

Does any one have the measurements of the crio choke tubes?
