Pedersoli recommends TSS without shot cup?

[Blackpowderart]

Nice.

I don't know what your cut down range is or how hard a head hit desired...

I went .675.... there isn't enough info on these chokes in muzzloader with lead etc.... without buying every choke..

I usually don't post on forums.. I read.. I kinda joined in on that, figured any info on the topic of choke and muzzloader s could help somone...

The choke I bought is .680... haven't shot it yet, hopefully this weekend weather permitting.

This is what I got with #6 lead at 25 with tje standard full thomson center choke. Not that I'm not happy with that, because I am....but patterning is so fun. I love seeing what me and the gun can do.

Most of the pedersoli screw in choke guns have a different stock...not sure if all of them but I believe it's all I've seen. They have that extra hump on the grip behind the trigger like a newer gun. Maybe it's like that for a reason that im un aware of but I'm partial to the other one...maybe it will grow on me... depends on how nice it is when I find one and am ready to spend the money

The " hump" is called a semi pistol grip.
Here is Pedersoli sxs shotgun current product range.

Thanks, I was wondering what he was talking about. It didn't register that the pistol grip might be called a hump, and was being compared to a straight "english" stock.

At 25 yards that will definitely kill a turkey. Instead of going the TSS route you can also purchase Nickel plated lead 6's which may improve the pattern even more. I took a lot of waterfowl with those. Also please be careful of Pedersoli's translation as they are sometimes not accurate. It is not intentional but just simple human error when translating Italian to American English. Hope you get your turkey. North AL Turkey season kicks off soon. Good shooting to you.

I saw one 10ga dp with turkey foot prints on one side that looked cool. Pricey though.

kinda Hit my limit on guns. use what i have. still look around everyday though mostly at Shotguns. always favored the Shotgun. I think more because of the dog and all though.

My current dog i gun trained worked up the load shooting blanks at Quals with the pedersoli.

Found topics on a search.. more people have cracked teeth on the stuff lol that's kinda bad!

I heard a kid last year cracked a tooth on tss from turkey.

I don't think it's worth it.

I had to ask.

They didn't think they would recommend it without the cup.

the TC book did recommend regular steel without cup.. not a chrome line barrel either..
