Re: SA-28 tactical turkey Indian Creek and Trulock
The .520 IC gives you a good 10" w/ an acceptable 20" which is IMO a preferred hunting pattern. I kill the majority of my birds between 20-35 yards and base my evaluation of pattern efficacy on that distance with the knowledge and experience that it will still kill effectively well past t...

Re: SA-28 tactical turkey Indian Creek and Trulock
Looks great, they look real familiar to my results with the two chokes. Awesome patterns. I was thinking the same thing!! I posted it them looked at yours… lol Try a 8.5x9 load in the .515. I would like to see your outcome. Ok, I’ll give it a shot this week. But I think I’m gonna stick with the 9’s...

SA-28 tactical turkey Indian Creek and Trulock
I tested a couple different loads with different chokes today. I am using a SA-28 tactical turkey with an Indian Creek 520 and Trulock 515. I used my 1.5oz Handload straight 9’s and 9.5x8.5’. What y’all think??

Re: Mossberg SA-28 Pattern Test
I tried the IC 520 and 525 in my two SA28’s, one is an all purpose and the other is the new tactical turkey. The all purpose likes the 525 and the tactical turkey really liked the 520.
Try the factory choke, nothing to sneeze at either.

Re: Mossberg SA-28 Tactical Turkey
Well I love this gun. I was just out pattern testing a few different loads with an IC 520. Im not breaking any records, but I’m loving what the 8.5’s are doing. Think I’m gonna stick with them.

Re: Mossberg SA-28 Tactical Turkey
I ordered this one from Buds Gun Shop. About $775 shipped. Right at 5 lbs of smooth shooting machine! I have several loads I got to test, hopefully I will be able to do it soon.

Mossberg SA-28 Tactical Turkey
One fine piece of equipment right here. Comes with a 520 turkey choke. Shot with 525 IC and the factory choke, and the factory choke was a touch better. Dug through my bag of chokes, found a 520 IC, gonna try it soon. Put on a Kingslayer green dot. It is a sharp, smooth shooting gun!

Re: SouthDakota..
The weather was awful when I was in SD. Found birds, but that afternoon rain and snow came in and we couldn't get back to where the birds were again. We decided to make the move to Nebraska, the next day a buddy and I doubled up on two nice public land Nebraska Merriams. Point is, SD isn't what it u...

Re: Florida Wildlife Officer Killed
We were in the FWC Academy together. Strong dude with a big smile. It is sad that he lost his life while taking law enforcement action while off duty. Just goes to show what kind of officer he was. All ways doing his duty to help keep his community safe.

Re: Merriams
I have went to South Dakota (Black Hills) twice. I have had a blast each time. Only one Merriam to show for it, but the trips were awesome! Memories were made. I’m in Florida and will be going back in the next year or two.
