I went to a 410 . I use apex ninja ammo in it.
I mainly hunted turkey for the past 10 years with a bow so no problem on shells, However I do have some stock on 12 & 20 3" turkey loads if I want to break oout the ole 1100 mag with Magnaport Choke or the 20 Benelli F1 Field. LGS around here don't even have dove shot. Never hunted doves with a bow thow.
Just got me a Tom sat morning (opening day) @ 630am ( sunrise) -- 60 yards, #9 tss, 3 flops and he was done.
In the big picture, ammo isn't the expensive part of hunting
...at those rates, no thanks...INSANITY !! GLAD I BOUGHT 5 BOXES YEARS AGO ....always the first shot and followed by 2 long beards....problem is I've never had to fire an LB.....things are getting out of control however..
