Do you think shooting 2 3/4 is not recommended right now?

Turkey shooting doesn’t require 2 3/4” shells nor does it require 1 oz. loads…
What turkey shooting does require is tight chokes coupled with #6 shot and head shots ONLY at 30 yards or less with a 20 gauge.

Consider becoming a PGCA member, James. It's well worth the fee - you'll learn much and the hose diameter diminishes over time....but never goes away.
