Winchester Supreme® attn: Power & VarmitMaster
« on: April 01, 2004, 04:45:18 PM »
Power, VarmitMaster:

I went to a Turkey Hunting Seminar last Saturday with a friend of mine. The featured speaker was Vincent Fluginiti. He has  a couple of WA State Grand Slams (Eastern, Merriam, & Rio Grande). Like you guys he is really sold on Winchester Supreme® Turkey loads. :)

His gun is a Mossberg® Mdl 835; the original 3½" Magnum. He tried all different kinds of loads and chokes and the Winchester Supreme® 3" and 3½" Mags and #4 shot is what he swears by. Because he has such great success with that he has yet to try Hevi-Shot®. As do we he aggrees it's VERY EXPENSIVE.

Doing my own testing with my Mossberg® in 20Ga Federal® patterned the best, followed by Winchester® and Remington®. Conversely my son also uses a 20GA (Winchester Pump); his gun patterns Remington® like a house a fire! Federal & Winchester not well at all. Go Figure! :?

Another option we (son & I) are looking at is Kent Ultimate®; see what you guys think:

I believe you are trying to say:

Hi dawie:

My wife uses a BPS 20ga youth model 3 inch mag 22 inch barrel.  Right now I am letting her use the CoMP-N-Choke choke and it patterns the Best with Federal 20ga Turkey loads and then the Win Turkey load.  I haven't seen any Win High Vel 20 ga turkey loads so she uses the Federal loads and the reg Rem Turkey loads.  I have tried them in the past so I won't buy any more; they would have to get better than they use to be, I won't buy any more Rem's load I don't like.  I have a box of the Hevi Shot 6's my wife got me last year; hope they don't go bad because it will be a while before I get to them LOL! I had a talk with DON SHIPP; World Cham. caller for M.A.D. Calls and he said that is all they shot; Win High Vel shells. If they come out with some in a 20 ga I will get some and pattern them. For now the Fed 's will do; and they pattern good at 40 yrds. She has killed her share of turkeys with that little one. I think she will kill a few more to go with the others becasue she is only 30 yrs old. The new shells; Kent's, look like a good shell; are they nickel plated shot? If you try them let me know how they work out.

good luck VM

Glad to see the Pro's agree with me. I've spent enough time and money to figure that out too! Thanks for the post!
