    Trulock makes a choke specifically for the new Federal TSS loads also. If its anything close to the old Federal Heavyweight/Trulock choke combination, it will be hard to beat.

    Last year I used a Slick Trick 100 magnum. Worked just fine, and no pellets to watch for.

    For shotgun I switched to Long Beard XR and their choke tube. It's the only combo I could get my SBEII to pattern well.

    I finally got to test out the 3 " Federal TSS #9 shot today. Shooting a 12 gauge pump, Carlson TSS choke (.650), They put more shot on the target paper than the 3" Longbeard XR #5 with Carlson choke tube(.665) The #9 Tungsten are supposed to have the same down range energy as #5 lead shot, the difference being you have a lot more pellets in the hull due to the smaller size. But they are crazy expensive.

    My Beretta 400 with the Patternmaster extended range tube shoots a 100% pattern at 40 yards with 3.5in Long Beard XR #5's.

    No turkey will survive that if I do my part.
