  1. Those three numbers after the decimal represent diameter in thousandths of an inch. a 20ga cylinder bore is .620" or .62 caliber. Typical choke diameters for your 20ga Mossberg® are as follows.......... .620 Cylinder .610 Imp Cyl .600 Modified .595 Imp Mod .590 Full .585 X-Full Turkey chokes for a 20ga typically range from .585 all the way down to .550 (28ga Cyl Bore Diameter). Here is a pattern of Federal® Flitecontrol® Mag-Shok® 3" Mag 1185fps 1 5/16oz #5 Pb (#PFC258F 5) fired through my 20ga Mossberg® with a .555" diameter choke..... Here is a pattern of Federal® Flitecontrol® Mag-Shok® 3" Mag 1185fps 1 5/16oz #6 Pb (#PFC258F 6) fired through my 20ga Mossberg® with a .555" diameter choke..... Lastly here is a pattern Federal® Flitecontrol® Mag-Shok® 3" Mag 1185fps 1 5/16oz #4 Pb (#PFC258F 4) fired through my 20ga Mossberg® with a .584" diameter choke.....

  3. In Washington we hunt Easterns, Merriams, and Rio's
  4. If your gun is a fixed FULL choke I would recommend using Federal® Flitecontrol® Mag-Shok® 3" Magnum 1 5/16oz loads of #4, 5, or 6 shot Pb (#PFC258). Get a box of each & see how they pattern in your sister's gun. Should these not perform to your liking then try............ • Remington® Nitro-Turkey 3" Mag 1¼oz #5 (#NT20M5) • Winchester® Supreme® 3" Mag 1 5/16oz #4 (#STH2034) • Winchester® Supreme® 3" Mag 1 5/16oz #5 (#STH2035) As your gun is a fixed full choke I would use Pb and stay away from HTL so as to not damage the choke.
  5. Hunter Specialties® Ring Zone® Slate w/Hickory Cross Cut Stryker - Simply the best!
  6. Two that are my "Go To" calls............ • Lynch® World Champion Box call No 102 • Hunter Specialties® Ring Zone™ Slate w/Hickory cross Cut Striker
  7. Nothing wrong with using #4Pb!
  8. Me too, Mossberg® Mdl 500 in both 12 and 20ga!
  9. 04/15 - 05/31 each year in WA state.
  10. I use two guns for Turkey hunting......... • Mossberg® Mdl 500C 20ga w/26" Barrel and Hastings® .570" Extended Turkey choke. Load of choice is Winchester® Supreme™ 3" 1 5/16oz #4 Pb (#STH2034) It patterns like this.............. • Remington® (Baikal®) Spartan SPR220 20ga w/Remington® Nitro-Turkey™ 3" 1¼oz #5 Pb with Colonial® Turkey Full (#TSTF) .575" and Colonial® Turkey XFull (#TSTX) .570". It patterns like this..............
  11. That's absolutely AWESOME! What gun/choke were you using and what kind of ammunition please?
