Anyone still use a 10ga for turkey?

I use a 410 with #9/#10.. if I’m really irritated at them I’ll grab the 28ga with #9/10 combo also.

I personally don’t see the need over 20ga and a sub 6lb gun is a joy to carry for a long stroll through the woods

I very much agree with you.

My turkey hunting mentor was a 10 gauge guy. His SP10 was a legit 60 yd gun with lead turkey loads. He killed more turkeys than anyone I’ve ever known or even heard of, most with that 10 gauge.

10 gauge and TSS sounds close to anti-aircraft weaponry. Don't tell the Iranians

I have a marlin super goose in 10 gauge with a 36" barrel. I cannot fathom running TSS out of it. It is a very fun gun but the only practical use I can find for it is turkey hunting. Glad to see there are like minds still around.

I mean 10ga is just more expensive, I don’t think I’ve ever had any issues with 12ga 3.5 inch BB’s for Turkey.

BB's?!?!

A buddy had one and he hunted geese, ducks and pheasant with it. Knocked a pheasant down legitimately at 100.
