One gun
Re: One gun
Remington 870 youth model 20 gauge. Versatile gun with today's lead and TSS, very compact with youth stocks and 21 inch barrel, it's a dream to shoot and carry in the woods.
Re: One gun
Yildiz TK36 single-shot .410. A 40+ yard turkey killer that sips a pound of TSS into 18-19 handloads of 13/16 to 7/8 oz. At 3 lbs., 4 oz. it is tailor made to my style of turkey hunting. Gil

Re: One gun
I've been hunting with a Remington 11-87 SPST nwtf 25th Anniversary model for 22
years &, unless it falls apart, I will shoot my last shot from it.

Re: One gun
My Yildiz 410. It is hard to beat and a pleasure to carry. It also packs a serious punch with TSS 10s.
Re: One gun
Right now I’d have to say my yildiz youth 20 o/u. Is short, it’s light and I can load it with very little to no noise. It’s a joy to carry and it’s short for easy maneuvering. I have my choice of 2 chokes/shell combos for close up and further out. It was not a whole lot of $ so if something happens to it I’m not going to be to worried about messing up an expensive gun. Other than the terrible dip job on it, it’s great

Re: One gun
If TSS is around always, my Bobwhite 28.
If the future of shot is uncertain, Browning Maxus 26”. It’ll pattern lead, Hevi, and TSS.

Re: One gun
If I had to choose just one gun for all needs for the rest of my days. It would be a Maxus. I love all of mine, I thought the Gold's were the best guns ever made until the Maxus came out. Then again I thought the Auto5 was the best gun ever made until the Gold came out. So I might be a little biased.BrowningGuy88 wrote: ↑April 26th, 2020, 10:58 am

Sorry. This would be one gun for turkeys. One gun for everything would be benelli sbewchadw wrote:Right now I’d have to say my yildiz youth 20 o/u.

Designated turkey gun- Benelli M-1 20 gauge with Burris fastfire
One gun for everything - Benelli Super Black Eagle 1

Re: One gun
Agreed, I own both. Early 1990’s H&K imported guns. My super 90 20ga has wood stocks though.
Turkey hunted with the SBE1 until I started loading tss. Wouldn’t trade them for anything.
Still use the SBE1 for waterfowl. Never a malfunction with either.

Re: One gun
This would be mine as well I think.
Re: One gun
Remington 870 20ga, you just add all the fixins'. As stated, with loads available, between reloading and factory. No need to torture yourself.

Re: One gun
If I had to go with one gun, I'd stay with an 870 12 ga. I can load up or down with TSS or use enough lead to make it deadly at 40. I've carried both a 21" barrel 12 and 20. Yes the 12 is heavier, but not enough to slow me down or hold me back. The 20 is nice, but it only does what a 12 can by using TSS.
Re: One gun
Id kick the 410 and the 20 ga to the curb .... It would be my Maxus 3.5 . shoots about everything to same poa and will flop them way to far with hevi shot who knows hiw far with TSS because I only shoot Hevishot or Longbeards out of it so far since TSS is way overkill in a 12 ga loading .

No. It’s a walnut stock. I got it dippedTrustyrusty wrote:Does it have synthetic stocks?wchadw wrote:My little yildiz youth 20wchadw wrote:Right now I’d have to say my yildiz youth 20 o/u.

Re: One gun
Even though I prefer semi autos and love my Weatherbys, if its one gun. Its gonna be an 870 20 ga youth. Tough as nails and easy to maintain and clean.

Re: One gun
Maxus 3.5. I haven't carried it in a few years due to my Affinity Compact 20 gauge but the Maxus is just slightly heavier, eats whatever I shove in it, and is lethal to 40+ with lead, Hevi, or TSS.
