[QUOTE="svnmag, post: 85182, member: 330"] I respect and understand Guy's article. John McIntosh proclaims the best constriction/combo/load for upland out to 40yds is CYL/IMPCYL at around 1100fps for a dbl gun. Per SD and other reading: If you choose this combination, you may want to work on your lead and follow-through on clays if you've been shooting speedier loads. The pellet energy difference isn't appreciable at 40 with increased speed and the decreased fatigue (noticeable or not for all the BAMFs) will result with more kills once you wrap your head around the physics. Of course: A #4 buck will hit harder at 40 than a #2; it's then pattern density becomes the devil with the diminishing freakn' returns. If you would logically like to shoot geces/turkey with large shot; too much choke is bad. It causes shot deformity, decreased pattern efficiency and half-assed flyers which may or may not bring LUCK. My "school of thought" on turkey is to blow it's head off with a massive amount of small shot from a tight choke.
