[QUOTE="TiminTN, post: 4586799, member: 405"] I got into TSS recently, and was looking at all the fantastic pictures of 20 ga patterns. I been hunting turkeys maybe 25 years and have always enjoyed the technical aspect of guns, loads and pellet counts. I was brought to this by the guy who taught me 99% of my hunting and gun tuning Frank Cox. Frank is a #4 guy says he wants to "break them down" and the targets he was proudest of shooting Winchester Supremes was a 10" pellet count of 85 to 88 in a 10 inch circle. Boy have things come a long way!! I set myself 2 goals getting into TSS, 1 was a pellet count of 200, and a 1250 to 1300 fps speed to increase energy and penetration for the smaller #9 shot. Well my goals have been achieved. I shot yesterday in breezy conditions, but had just been waiting to long to get out and go. I hunt Mississippi and our season opens the 15th, TOMORROW!! I kept adjusting the scope, after I found the right choke for my load, started with a .562" *IC, then a .560 Haymaker, saw I was going the wrong way, screwed in a .565" and found happiness!! The .560" Haymaker produced 111 in the 10" circle, very touchy to choke selection. I`m shooting 1 1/4 oz TSS #9, with velocity of 1369 fps. Thats what I call DONE!!
