  1. I just got a nova and got a lot of help from reading the posts here and on the NWTF site. Thanks everyone!!! I went with the 24" barrel, and a pure gold, extended, ported tube at .670. I tried a number of different rounds and the federal premium 3 1/2 #6's and remington hevishot 3 1/2 # 6's did the best in my gun so far. It is up to you, but I did a bit better with the hevi thn the lead. As a matter of fact, this morning at 40 yds, I had 213 hits in a 10 in ciclre, with an astounding 44 in a 4 in. Needless to say, dead turkey. I am still waiting on the hevi 13 to come in and am also going to try the winchester extd range (their hevi) and will let you know the results when I try it.

     

    Best of luck, but keep in mind, I am simply a noivice at this so if I can find something that works, you should have no trouble.

    I would think any brand in the .660 range would work fine. Primos Jellyheads get good reviews. Kicks makes good tubes, so does Rhino, Comp-n-Choke, etc.

     

    I have quite a few Benelli turkey chokes at home - give me a day to see what I have - I think I can send you one for nothing - my SBE II shoots the Crio choke, so I have no need for so many tubes.
