Steel shot # 2 in 3 inch shells is all I ever use Why are you using steel shot? Sort of handicapping yourself for no reason.

#5 Federal premiums 3 inch copper shot is as fancy as I get, for 2 shots with that TSS shot you could by a nice butterball.

Steel shot # 2 in 3 inch shells is all I ever use A lot of states have a limitation on shot size-no larger than #4. I assume that Maine doesn't? Also as noted above Steel shot loses it's velocity faster than lead. I use #4 copper plated in 3 inch. The heavier than lead is a good choice for the smaller gauges that have a limited payload. Just my 2 cents.

3 inch nickel #6s. Box of 25 for about $15. Good enough for the last several I've killed.

12 gauge w #4 buck in a 2 3/4" shell. Turkey choke on my Maverick 88 pump? That's 27 pellets in unison.

Rogers Sporting Goods, who is as reasonable as any online IMO, has Federal 3" 20 ga. TSS @ $36.99, 12 ga. 3" @ $35.99, and 12 ga. 3 1/2" @ 44.99.... for FIVE. I see where it can bring the .410 into the game, but for me the Longbeard and the 5,6,7 Blend loads are just fine. Legally we can't use any shot smaller than #6 unless it is in a duplex load with #6 or larger shot here in DE... straight 7's or 9's are no go until something changes here in DE. We also can't use any gauge less than a 20 at present... rules out the .410 TSS. I've seen some YouTube patterns of both factory and hand loaded TSS that are almost unbelievable in both density and range.

A lot of States require steel shot on public lands some of the shot size restrictions might be for less damage in places people shoot each other more then a bird thing maybe.

Shot size restrictions are aimed at encouraging head shots at shorter ranges versus long range body shots with large projectiles that might hit another hunter at long range. Ask Tim Caven.

How much pattern variation can you get at 15 yards? Honestly, #2 shot at 15 yards doesn’t make sense. But thats just me.

As a trapshooter I have shot many 100's of patterns at 16 yards. I'm always shooting # 8's or # 7.5's but the choke can make a big difference. I would guess at 15 yards WITH A GOOD CHOKE and any shot size the turk's head or neck would be separated from the body. BTW: big difference is a 4" pattern or an 8" pattern.

$8???? Three of us got together and loaded our own for our 20ga. Think it came out less than $1 a shell. Guaranteed floppage at 0-50. With that being said, most of my shots are at 25-35. Too close and I’m afraid I’ll miss. My gun is set up with a more open pattern just in case they sneak in close. i doubt you loaded tss for less than a dollar a shell. its $50 a pound for the shot. A lot of States require steel shot on public lands some of the shot size restrictions might be for less damage in places people shoot each other more then a bird thing maybe. tss is a nontoxic shot so should be legal in those areas

28gauge 40 yards with tss 1-7/16oz 9s 10gauge 40 yards federal premium 2-1/4oz 4s tss is heavier than lead doesnt deform so no fliers. since it is heavier you can use a smaller shot size and each pellet still has the energy needed yet will also penetrate better due to it being smaller.

They make a .410 deadly out to at least 50 yards. It is impressive. Not sure if it's worth the cost though. they make a 410 deadly out to as far as it can keep an acceptable pattern and not every one will make 50yds. 50yd 410 is about 1 in 10 from my numbers.

Dare i say, check mate? Disclaimer, i dont use tss. I might someday. I bought a couple 10 round boxes a couple years ago. Both pattern well in different situations for me. Given my PA only hunting and usually only one bird per year, its gonna be a while before i need ammo.

Thats the point, any shot or choke should kill a turkey dead at 15 yards. If a gun won’t kill a bird dead with any load at 15 yards, its not a turkey gun. IMO, a load of lead 7.5s would work far better than #2 steel at that close range. Though I also know when someone tells me they “won’t shoot past xx yards”, the real number is usually close to double.

With the TSS shells you will have a turkey killing pattern at 50 yards out of a cheap single shot .410. With any other ammo, I would agree 1 out of 10 at 50. This stuff is sense and hold tight patterns.

I’ve got enough to last my lifetime and that’s hunting multiple states each year (except this one) with an average of about 8 birds a year. And if I ever run out we still have some TSS to load some more. TSS shines in smaller gauges. I’d never use it in a 12ga and I’d never haul a 12ga around chasing turkey ever again anyways. #9 TSS in a 20ga is a deadly load.

If you are hunting multiple states or only yours with limited time I'd say absolutely worth it. As with most threads to each their own and its not necessarily wrong if you choose to do something someone else thinks is a stupid way to do it. I am not one to get caught up in the latest and greatest but I switched to a Indian Creek choke tube and TSS shot. If I can extend my kill range (which it did) I am going to do it, kill my birds and move on to the next bird while some may be waiting for that magical distance.

Stunning to see #4 buck mentioned in a turkey thread.

No more shocking than the fella swearing by #2 steel shot! But at 15 yds, a good BB gun should do the trick.

If you are hunting multiple states or only yours with limited time I'd say absolutely worth it. As with most threads to each their own and its not necessarily wrong if you choose to do something someone else thinks is a stupid way to do it. I am not one to get caught up in the latest and greatest but I switched to a Indian Creek choke tube and TSS shot. If I can extend my kill range (which it did) I am going to do it, kill my birds and move on to the next bird while some may be waiting for that magical distance. Spot on. When im travelling hunting pressured public land gobblers. No time to full around. I gotta move product. I go big or I stay home. 3.5 out of a well used 835 ultimag

Big difference hunting high population or unpressured or backyard birds VS hearing one a day pressured public land turkeys far from home. I’ve hunted tough turkeys in the western U.S., but the toughest turkeys are in the Southeastern U.S. as a general rule.
