If you saw my previous post last year on “Can you turkey hunt with a 410?” your gonna want to see the update from this year as I answered the question.
In short, YES. Yes you can turkey hunt with a 410.
TSS Turkey loads have come a long way. You may have even seen our review of Apex Ammunition’s Turkey Ninja 410 turkey loads which have some impressive results. But today, there is a new kid in the game.
T.P. Outdoors Adventures Pro Staffer, Dustin Duck Campbell, has created the ultimate Ultra Magnum Turkey loads. He has yet to release the exact markup of these new and improved turkey loads but they pack a punch and their results speak for themselves. They are available in 410, 28ga, 16ga, 12ga, 10ga, and even 8ga for those of you shooting old fashioned punt guns.
Check them out below and contact T.P. Outdoors in Monroe, Louisiana to order some before your next turkey hunt.
Turkey hunting has been a favorite of mine for a long time. This year I want to do it a little different.
Apex Ammunition recently introduced their newest TSS turkey loads. The new Turkey Ninja TSS turkey loads in 410 are supposed to be the baddest 410 noggin knockers ever created. I want to put them to the test this year in my Great Great Grandfather’s Winchester Model 42 410.
As you can see, they pattern pretty good in this old 410. I shot this off hand and standing. It hit a little high and left but that’s my fault and not the gun or ammo’s. I’m impressed with the results. I still got 20 hits in a 3″ circle and 85 in a 9″ circle. If I’d actually hit the center mark, this number would have gone up significantly. Even off a little, Its a dead turkey.
This was my Great grandfather’s gun. It was made in 1941 before the war. It was passed down to my dad to squirrel hunt with as a kid. I actually dove hunted with this when I was about 6-7 years old. Such an awesome gun and I hope to take a turkey with it later this year.
