Re: Savage 220 Turkey Bolt Action

Shoreguy wrote: March 3rd, 2024, 7:23 pm I have one but for a 20 it’s heavy. Not saving much weight over a 12. Shoots decent 315 with an Indian creek 570, 270 with an Indian creek 562.
What ammo were those numbers from?

Re: Savage 220 Turkey Bolt Action

Got the Sumtoy today! Can’t wait to try it out. Not really worried about weight of the gun. I also have never had a gun rust no matter the brand and I own a couple savages.

Re: Savage 220 Turkey Bolt Action

Just ordered a Sumtoy .562 for the 220 Turkey. I have an Indian Creek that I’ve been shooting as well. Plan on using Apex Ninja #8.5 shot.

Re: Dwindling Turkey Populations

While in my deer stand Nov 1 I had 7 bearded turkeys come by me in one group. This is in Harrison county Ohio. Our numbers have been down last few years but seems like a couple positive batches can sure turn things around.

Re: Savage 220 Turkey Bolt Action

I have several Indian Creek chokes for my other guns. For the & I thought I’d try the avian x choke before spending twice the $ on the IC choke. But all my IC chokes are excellent. Local Turkey meat shoots you see lots of the creek chokes.

Re: Remington 870 SPS Turkey setup

Thanks!! He was very special to me. I actually called in his first Turkey back 11-12 years ago and he shot it with this gun he had just bought a week or two prior. He had that bird full body mounted and never shot another one, I bet that gun hasn’t been shot 10 times in its life yet. That day he sho...

Remington 870 SPS Turkey setup

This gun belonged to a good friend of mine who we lost to pancreatic cancer in 2019. I bought the gun off his wife in 2020 and finished the setup today. Installed an Indian Creek .665 choke and added a saddle mount with Holosun 510C circle dot sight. Should be a Turkey slayer! I have some federal 3”...

Re: 16 ga 870 with Eotech

I have a 12ga 870 Super Mag with the same stock. My barrel is shorter and gas rifle sights. I’m looking to add a scope rail and a Holosun 510C circle dot sight. My receiver is not drilled and tapped. I was worried the sight would be too high but after seeing yours I think I’ll be ok!

Re: Mossberg SA410 Turkey finally in!

Do you have any recommendations on how to “paint” the 410 Indian creek choke? Or do you just leave it “in the white”?
