Congratulations on the success! It’s certainly a killer combo

Thank you for the insight and the view! When I purchase a red dot I’ll likely consider shooting that combo, I definitely feel like I lost the whole picture with the high shot

Interesting to know, most of the comments with that combo shoot high. When I purchase a red dot I may consider running it! Thank you for the view!

Thank you! I think you’ll be in good shape. We pray for you a successful season brother!

It wasn’t necessarily a choice, that’s all they had but I’m sure the patterns are comparable with the 3 inch

Listen closely and he said that's all Walmart had

Who cares if he shoots 3.5". Big deal. Each to his own

I couldn’t imagine! Thank you for watching!

Interesting, Im familiar with the rings but I did not know tss would wear on them! Thanks for the view!

We work with Kent and their turkey loads are no longer being made, if you happen to find some somewhere they are left over from prior to being discontinued

I agree, i definitely didn’t give it a fair chance! I’m certainly gonna do a reshoot, however I don’t own a red dot and that shot comes high out of my gun so I likely won’t run it until I invest in one. Thanks for the view brotha! Good luck this season!

Yeah, looking back on it neither am I. I’ll likely do a re-shoot on that this week!

@@lockedin.productions yes! Pls do! Ur pattern was high! Shoot till you get the pattern to hit the paper target ! Remember we not askin or talking “accuracy” we talking best pattern !

WHAT CARLSON CHOKE AND LOAD I JUST SWITCHED TO A 20 GA.

Sorry about that, I guess I could have clarified! I put it in the coverage image hoping people would see it but it is the 1200fps. Thank you for watching 🙏

Man, sounds like an impressive setup! May have to give that a try. Thanks for watching and good luck to you this season!

I suppose this is possible but 65 yards is a long way.

Thanks for the feed back! I would have liked to try the factory choke, it seems most people want to see the pattern from that as well. Unfortunately I don't have the factory choke to try. You are correct, I don't think anyone should assume, I think everyone should always test for themselves. Ive been considering getting red dot, unfortunately I just don't have one yet. Thank you for the view, comment and insight! Good luck this season!

@@lockedin.productions I want to see how a turkey choke improves the pattern over a factory full choke in every video, & sadly hardly anyone does that. It's no knock on you. I have adjustable fiber optic sights on my two shotguns set up for turkeys, but my eyes are getting old. I have been exploring red dots myself. Meadow Creek offers mounting plates & red dot packages that are competitively priced. From my recent research, a Holosum 507C-GR-X2 would be my top choice, and the Gowutar A20 (green dot) would be my affordable Amazon pick. For now, I am using my TruGlo adjustable fiber optic sights. Good luck to you!

@@lockedin.productions I think Herter's TSS loads bridge a bit of a gap between LBXR & more expensive, larger TSS payloads. Their 2.75" 12 gauge & 3" 20 gauge carry the same 1.5 oz payload going 1,200 fps. A 20 gauge user might be drawn to them the most I have never used them myself, but they seem like a great value when watching others try them. I own three shotguns (10, 12, & 20 gauge), & I have an Indian Creek choke tube for each. I don't even consider anything else, but I was shooting Hevi-13 loads with them long before TSS became popular. Indian Creek is a good TSS choke, too. I've never seen a reason to try anything else.

Thanks for the heads up. I am about to buy an 835 and was going to buy the Carlson's Longbeard choke. I'll look at the Indian Creek.

My beretta loves the Carlsons long beard choke with the long beard 3” #6

I wasn't aware of that, maybe ill order some and see how they do! Thank you for the feedback!

I shoot the Carlson long beard choke and long beard xr #6 3” shell and get a better pattern than any 3.5” I’ve shot out of my gun

That’s bs! It’s for 4-5-6 but 6 does shoot best ! The choke is designed to be used with the wad of the long beard ammo

Thank you for the feedback! I currently don't have red dot to put on it, maybe in the near future. I will likely be doing a reshoot with that combo to get a better grasp on how it performs. watching it back now, I do see where half of the shot being off the paper likely skewed my results. Thanks for the view!

Because you are shooting to far or you don't have it sighted in for the load you are using. Tss is over priced. Doesn't cost more to make

​@chuckhansen5325 wrong. Tungsten shoot is way more expensive then lead.

@@chuckhansen5325 Density - Hevi-Steel = 7.8 g/cc, Hevi-Bismuth = 9.6 g/cc, Lead = 11.35 g/cc, Hevi-13 = 12 g/cc, TSS = 18 g/cc, Tungsten metal = 19.28 g/cc. Tungsten is rarer than lead and it is just plain harder to work with. A melting point of 6192 °F. Compare that with lead's melting point of 621°F.

I had the gun sighted in with a red dot and had bird from 25-40 yards get away with LBXR out of a 20 ga. It’s just too slow at 1,000fps

It’s only more expensive! Only reason to spend $20 a shell on tss is ur gun is shit and can’t pattern lead good at distance !

WHAT CHOKE AND CONSTRICTION IN YOUR 20 GA? I JUST SWITCHED FROM A 12 GA TO THE 20.

@@DEVILDOG1964 Primos 560 Jellyhead. But you may also want to try the 570 Tightwad or the Cabelas BlackMaxx in 575. I had an issue with my Cabelas choke. It was cracked or cracked when I shot it. But I have seen some decent patterns out of the BlackMaxx. I think I just got a lemon. This season, I killed 4 turkeys with the 560 and the 2 3/4 inch #9’s. The first one was 35 yards; the second one was 45 to 50; the third one was 48; and the last one was 35 yards. I am not changing anything on my gun even though I think I could probably get it tighter. I am there to kill turkeys, and this set up works for me. Semper Fi, brother. I am assuming by your name you were in the Marine Corps also.

@@burkejones8277 THX, AND GOOD HUNTING!!

@@DEVILDOG1964 The shells are Apex.

Thank you for the insight, certainly something I’ll take into consideration! I agree, there was some information lost or skewed by the shot being pulled. Also would be nice to know if a center combo truly does impact high, right etc. Do you think the shot with the Longbeard Xr choke would have been competitive if the core hit the center of the paper? If so I may do a retest to see!

Without an adjustable sight on a gun, NOBODY, IMO, should be shooting beyond 40-45 yards at a turkey, especially in a flock. That said, nobody would have to spend ridiculous amounts of money on TSS to harvest a bird. A good lead load that has been patterned to your rig is all you really need. Patterning your rig is paramount! LongBeard is the best lead load available. I don't know why Winchester doesn't flood the market starting after New Year.

I know the Longbeard chokes that I have shot have consistently performed very well with Longbeard XR loads, which is also the case in many videos I have watched. The Indian Creek tube did a great job, which is evident by the majority of the pattern being visible on the target. Since the majority of the pattern shot with the Longbeard choke is off the target, it is hard to say with certainly which choke tube patterned the best. This is a good reason to have a backer, which would have captured the entire shot pattern that came out of the Longbeard choke. Definitely not trying to be critical, just want to provide constructive feedback that I think would help you and your viewers. Having the backer could potentially keep you from having to make a follow up test shot to confirm a patterns density and where the core of the pattern is impacting compared to your point of aim. Could save you the cost of s target or two, and/or shotshell(s).

Spot on!

@@TDINWY that loads been out 10 years

How much do you spend on gas going to and from your hunting spot? How much is your license/tag? We don't hunt because of economy. Also, How many turkeys do you shoot in a year?

I don't know I'm just seeing this comment haha but thank you so much!

Crazy, how those views work! Thank you for the view and kind words, we greatly appreciate it!

Thank you!
