Who Dares Wins
Sharpshooter
I have been shooting Federal Premium 12 Gauge 3" #5 Flitecontrol shells for my Turkey Hunting using my Remington 870 with a 24" barrel and a TruGlo Gobble Stopper Extreme choke tube for several years now and getting good patterns from my set-up.
I am looking to step up to Hevi-Shot for longer range and tighter patterns. Does anyone know if I can use Hevi-Shot in this choke tube? If I should buy a new choke tube do you have any recommendations for a good choke tube fit for Hevi-Shot use?? Probably a Federal ammunition version with 3" shells and either #5 or #6 size shot in my Remington 870 is what I would go with.
If you have recommendations on say #5 shot versus #6 shot or smaller and also recommended brands of Hevi-Shot type ammunition, then I would like to hear from you!
Many thanks in advance for any advice you can give me!

Also, should I even consider a more open tube than "Turkey/Full" to shoot good even patterns out to 30-40 yds or more?
