Got a chance to shoot my 870 20ga with longbeards. Not a bad pattern. I am not a pellet counter.....but I think this will work for turkeys at normal ethical ranges of less than 40 yds. At this point I am not convinced that the 20 ga load is as good as the 12 ga. But maybe I can find a combination that my gun likes.
Did not like factory choke and #5. But this was with a cheap hs strut choke #5. 40 yds.

Well its sure nice to finally see a pattern on this new offering by Winchester!! I never get the warm and fuzzy with a 20 and #5 shot, maybe the 6`s will look more interesting. Still thats a dead bird every pull of the trigger!!
