On my last turkey trip there were 4 of us. 3 of them did not bring any shells. One no shell owner had a 20 gauge. I had nine 12 gauge shells from around 1985-1995 turkey hunting. So, having three 12 gauge guns, we each had 3 shells. The 20 gauge owner had to share the use of his Dad's 12 gauge. We all killed birds but it took seven shells to accomplish it. I came home with the leftover two.

My reloads this year will be determined by whether I can find some 3" hulls for my Rem 1100 turkey gun. I may reload some 2 3/4" hulls with 1 1/4 ounces of #6 in front of 700X. Only time will tell.
