[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5282281, member: 1409"] One thing I "like" about TSS is it allows me to use a more open choke [I](FOR A LARGER PATTERN), [/I]and, the TSS pellets tend to be more uniformly spaced on the target. Say what you want about dead being dead, but having a larger diameter pattern with fewer holes between pellets, reduces the chances of both wounding or missing, whether we're talking 20 yards or 40 yards. Another benefit is at least a slight increase in effective range. Some hunters are going to push the range envelope, no matter what they're shooting, but the fact remains that TSS gives an ethical hunter a greater margin for range error. This is true whether you're shooting a 12 ga or a 20 ga. Considering how few rounds need be fired annually, the cost per shell becomes less an issue, at least with turkey hunting. I guess TSS would also make a lot of sense for sandhill crane hunting, or any kind of hunting when only 2 to 4 rounds might be needed annually? [/QUOTE]
