They make 20's in 3.5 now?????  I really like the idea of a 20ga with TSS, but I just can't justify buying a new reloading set up

I really like the idea of a 20ga with TSS, but I just can't justify buying a new reloading set up About $350 is what I spent initially to get shot, components, and a roll crimp bit. There really isn't a whole lot to loading TSS. I was too intimidated to try it for a couple of years because I hadn't ever done any hand loading of any sort. Once I loaded the first shells and patterned them I wondered what the hell I had been waiting on.

You'll be money ahead by going with a 20 and TSS. Money ahead compared to what? Compared to factory 12ga loads?

For a dedicated turkey gun? Either a browning cynergy or cheap out with an 835 and out pattern all of them. Ride out here one weekend and I can show you differently lol

You'll be money ahead by going with a 20 and TSS. Money ahead compared to what? Compared to factory 12ga loads? My statement was based on the fact that: 1. Either of my 20 gauges with TSS will outshoot my 12 gauges with ANY factory load any day of the week; 2. I now have the following 12 gauge turkey guns that I will never use again: BENELLI SBEII 3.5" Beretta A400 Extreme 3.5" Browning A5 Remington 870 Supermag 3.5" Browning BPS 3.5" I would have saved myself thousands of dollars in my quest for the perfect turkey gun.

Lonster You say it like your never buying another turkey gun.
Do you want to hear him gobble, or do you want to kill him.

I've killed a couple of birds with my cynergy, but I prefer my 1187 SP for turkey hunting. IMO it points better from a sitting position. I have the comb on my cynergy set as low as I can and it still feels like I'm fighting to get down on the gun while sitting. Ive heard great things about the 1187 SP. Been thinking about getting one.
