[QUOTE="Clay Target Guy, post: 1632352, member: 68920"] I don't want to sound dumb or anything but one reason you may have more hits in the vital area with #5 over #4's is pellet count. You have more 5's per oz of shot than you do with #4 and the same is true of #6's over #5's. Either way, I have seen first hand that some guns like a 2 oz load better than a 2.25 oz load and some guns like one shot size over another. I think a lot of guys that turkey hunt do not put the time or effort (or money) into finding what their gun likes best the way that you are doing, so congrats for doing the work. I know I have a draw full of choke tubes and a cabinet full of shells that was a swing and a miss before I settled in on my current set up. [/QUOTE]
