Winston92 Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Hey y’all This is my first season ever turkey hunting and so I was wondering what would be the best load and choke combo to use with the benelli nova? I am a complete newcomer to hunting for them so I am wondering what would be my best options especially with limited budget.. Thanks and good luck this season!

LouMain Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Hi Winston 92, I've had very good luck using Winchester Longbeard XR #5 in 3.5" in my 12 GA Benelli SBE3 out to 35-40 Yards. Closer in at say 15-20 Yards Federal Grand Slam #4 or #5 in 2 3/4" has also worked well. The longer the shell the more recoil you will feel so 3" shells in #4 or #5 are a good compromise. As far as choke selection goes, I use a FULL choke every time I'm turkey hunting. Hope it helps and good luck to you too! https://winchester.com/Products/Ammunition/Shotshell/Long-Beard-XR https://www.federalpremium.com/shotshell/premium-turkey/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
