TSS runs $40-50 per lb.
That's 16 oz.

It flat works, but I'm too cheap to.play.

Natchez had some loads for about half of that and I’d never pay that! LOL

I went to TSS this year I know it's expensive but I like to turkey hunt and I splurged. I won't go back to regular turkey loads if I don't have too. If you want TSS you can check out Apex ammo for 12 gauge. They make a 3 inch 12 gauge with 2 1/4 oz of #9 shot that is deadly. For 20 gauge I go with Boss Tom ammo, 3 inch with 2 oz of #9 shot. Way better priced than what optics planet is showing. Both Apex and Boss Tom offer a military discount also. I killed 8 turkeys this year with TSS I don't plan on going back.

That Federal 3D lays out a turkey very well and is a lot cheaper too. A mix of copper plated shot, flight control shot and some TSS mixed in but I’m never going to shoot a bird at 50+ yards that’s as exciting as kissing my own Sister I like the birds up close for the win.

Guess I never saw the need for fancy shot ot big shells. 3" 20g #5 always seem to do well enough. Most likely it's a good thing for my bank account that I don't know what I'm missing. Pattern density of #9 and a big load from a 3" 12 would really extend range if it works like everybody here is saying it does.

But I'm not huge into turkeys. Our season come in late, tags are $24, so I just take the boys. Yout weeken is earlier and they get $7 youth license that covers all their hunting.

LOL of course you don't count the other components / equipment. What size load you shoot In that koolaid cannon? 1 oz . That's a steal at those prices ! Cheapest I saw anywhere was 45 bucks a lb. But I don't have the koolaid kids discount since I'm not a member.....

Hey jbyrd, glad to see you bringing your wealth of knowledge this morning

1 oz shot - $2
New, primed hull - $0.24
Powder - $0.08
Wad - $0.11

Total: $2.43

I get it cheap cause I don't buy it from the guys in the states that mark it up 40% plus shipping

If I remember correctly... OpticsPlanet doesn't really carry any stock. They drop ship and you pay a markup for them handling your order.
