- Patterning my new Stevens M301 20 gauge dipped in Asio camo! I shoot 20 targets with 5 different chokes at 40 yards trying to find a great pattern for my turkey gun! Chokes are Sumtoy .562, Indian Creek .562, TruLok .560, Rectifire .560, and Patternmaster .565. We used Boss, TSS Shot, and some handloaded #9 tss in the test!
I bought one of these 301 for my wife 3 years ago and I liked it so much I bought another one for myself. We’ve taken 3 turkeys between the two of them. Great setups! I’ve even used mine to take two black tail deer in shotgun only areas. All I had to do was switch out the choke for a rifled choke and rezero it. Best bang for the Buck setup
Good to see your back, hope everything in life is going well, and god bless you
I’m glad to know I’m not the only person that wants a tight pattern turkey hunting.
You'll want a tight pattern until a bird pops a ridge on you at 7 yards, and you try to hit it with the pattern of a 30-06, and you miss. You'll change your mind at that point.
@@joshsinglefooter you just focus on your hunts and from the sound of it your might want to pattern your gun up close and not 40 yards. Ive been doing this for 20 years I’ll be alright I’ve killed turkeys closer than 7 yards. That bead on the end of your gun is for you to aim with.
@TJ damn! Bud bit of attitude! Ha! Enjoy have a great season!
Awesome video Jay….thanks for dropping that Knowledge….next level stuff right there!
Hey Joe when is the asio hydro dip gonna be available for the public?🤩
@@jadrianbeiler2644 working on it
Great video! You spent a ton of time and money to make this one! Thank you for that! That white paper was hard to see patterns but still good one!
Ready for this season, it is coming up quickly! Great video as always.
I’m so excited for turkey season
I can’t believe it’s almost turkey season 😮😊
After seeing what a 20 gauge could do in Oklahoma this year, I came home and set up a youth model 20 for next spring. I didn’t do a pellet count, but I was impressed with what it did when I patterned it. I pulled the second shot to the right, but there was still plenty of shot in the head and neck.
I really like the way you broke the information and data down. Appreciate keeping the factors controlled.
Also, I shoot those boss 2 oz loads with lots of luck shooting a less constrictive choke. Currently shooting a 20 gauge rem 870 using a Carlson hevishot "extreme range" 0.589 constriction choke. Shot it today with 325 holes with the boss 2 oz on #9s.
That’s awesome.. yep, I figured it was blown out
Me and my son watch all your videos. I find it to be so inspirational for my son he loves you. He wanted to know if he could have your autograph. Forever your buds the Amersons
Love you guys!
William is the man!
jay i am big fan of you and the boys of seek one
if you held the paper so it was backlit by the sky or sun that would help us see the pellet holes.
My 301 20 gauge has a great stock choke. Likes apex 7/9 hometown blend or straight 9’s. I’ll be chasing Osceola birds tomorrow morning!..👍
Good luck!!
Just watched your work. Many years back I wrote an article regarding the three and a half 12 gauge. It was designed for waterfowl and steel shot. Unfortunately, people began shooting great patterns with lead and started shooting it for turkey hunting and failed to realize that the payload and powder charge didn't match. Patterns were great but the penetration on a gobbler was poor, failing to penetrate the backbone of a gobbler. Turkeys were being killed at long distances but had to go between the vertebra or through the eye to the brain. Two ounces of shot is questionable for a 20. Tss has changed the game for sub guns but must be paired properly between payload and charge. I'm not surprised that the two ounce loads faired less well, and I would question penetration ability.
Totally agree! Penetration is definitely key👊
I’ll be looking forward to getting some of them ward #1 loads they look deadly
I would love to see you add a “Davis choke” to this test hes a family friend of mine who honestly makes the best chokes I have ever used!
Interesting! Never heard of them! Glad to try!
Awesome man I was really pulling for patternmaster I have been using one for 9 years 12 and 20 gauge and I haven’t shot anything to beat it yet but I am like you I want the hottest core possible 350 in the 10 inch at 40
Great video
Was just wondering about what choke you use for your 410 turkey hunting.
Actually making a change there! I’ll try to post!!
Thanks I was going to try and hunt this year with my Tristar 4 10 and was wondering what choke might be best. Keep up the good videos I’ve had the privilege to hunt with some of the best turkey hunters in the world and I can say that you are one of the better Turkey hunters I have seen.
I’m sure you know you messed up on that patternmaster but I’m pretty darn sure they only make it in .565 constriction for all 20ga guns. Great test though! I use an 870 compact 20ga and use an Indian creek .555 with apex gt-20 no.9’s and consistently get 320-350 in the 10” circle at 40yds depending on the temperature outside. Temperature makes a huge difference on patterns as well and some guns shoot better with a dirty barrel and some shoot better with it clean. Mine likes it dirty and about 65-75 degrees outside. Anything above or below those temps and it starts to open the pattern up. I am kind of a pattern nerd 🤓 but good luck this season! I’m headed to south Texas next weekend to hopefully make one flop🤞🏻
Ugh, Turkey season starts April 22nd here in NJ. way to short of a season as well. it end's May 15th.
I’ll make it up there one day!
They make the season short to help manage population
I would like for you to do this on the range and your 10" circle in place before you shoot anything. Then we all will have some true results .
Ty
You draw the circle after you shoot so then you can shift your red dot or sights to where the best part of the pattern is wherever you put the bead or dot
Yep
Can you do a 410 pattern video
I can!
I had a similar experience with the Boss Tom’s 9’s 2oz, out of 3 20ga’s one with 555 Jebs ported, 555 Carlson, and 575 all at 40yd.
They either hit high & or open! I wouldn’t call it a good turkey load for what you are paying for them.
Yep can definitely be frustrating! But I sure do enjoy trying to find the perfect pattern
Glad you can see the pellet hole on that white paper I can't. White is the worst color you could use!! 2 oz of shot through a narrow constriction choke blows patterns!!!
Agreed
Should have got the diamond series Rectifire. They only recommend the spade series when shooting federal ammo
That makes sense
Aww man should have tried the JEBs choke! Puts em all to shame!
I was about to say the same I use a jebs for my 12 Guage and fold them up everytime
Shot the for a long time.. all 9 episodes last year
@@46TEN in your opinion is the pattern master better than the JEBs??
Somehow the Bushnell 250 became a Burris.
How did you find the dip for it bc I would like to buy one if they are for sale
I had it dipped in Augusta, Georgia at specialty camouflage
Can you do it on something beside white paper ,we cant see it
Check the new one up tonight!
Praying for you jay!… my question is where are all the mounts at😂
Took me three trips🤦🏻♂️🤣
Why no stock choke comparison?
I guess i just like custom but should've.. my bad
Is your buddy selling his ammo yet?! Would love to buy some and support!!
BTW if you are ever in the savannah area and want to chase a bird let me know.
Always down!
Where can I get some of that ammo?
Check the new episode!! Todays
Will a tss Hevi-Shot choke work with high velocity 3 inch rounds?
Yes!
i see you using Georgia homegrown products, any reason you are not trying any jebs/rogue products out of hazelhurst?
Shot them in the past. Good combo, but not this year
Informative ! ......You don't like 5's or 6's ?
Don’t need them anymore! This TSS is tough stuff! 9s are great!
@@46TEN Agree no need for 5`s or 6`s in TSS unless you are hunting dinosaurs.
Dude where can o find your turkey calls?? Missed out the last two years cause they have always been sold out. If u don’t make them anymore who do you recommend?
4610productions.com
Thank you!!
@@46TEN thank you sir!! Ordered the 4 pack. Hopefully I do them justice
I’m not for sure ? what’s a Steven m301? Never heard of them? Just seen a Steven 301
Single Shot Shotguns , very affordable
@@46TENyes sir your the reason I bought one. Did a lot of mods to mine sent it off for trigger work got it around 2.5-3 lbs. Sum toy mount with vortex venom. Indian creek 555 and check riser and cerakote burnt bronze insane pattern at 20-60
What company did you use to dip your shotgun?
Looking for a new one! I’ll post soon
Let’s go
Would’ve like to see the federal tss w stock choke used as a control. You sure Mutt counted correctly?
🤣 probably not! I know, too many options out there
@@46TEN I thought the Stevens stock chokes were designed for the federal loads
Can you spell the camo company brand and who dipped it for you? Thanks
ASIO
Gonna try someone else on the next dip
Why city life?
Temporary!!
My 12gauge with a full choke will cut a turkeys head for real if I ame for the neck his head comes off but my 10 gauge with a XL full choke will blow a turkeys head and neck with a 3 and 3 in a half inch shell with stat so tight I've even seen the shot gun wad hit his head then open up the best turkey gun I ever owned in my life no flip or flop just a flat dead turkey
U can’t see the pattern very well at all man u need to use the targets that are hi vis. So basically we r only going by your word because u cannot see the pattern on the video barely at all but other than that a good vid.
Check the new video. I fixed that
Do you sell hats on your website? Buddy
Probably only if you left. Looking for a new hat maker.
@@46TEN ok buddy thanks for telling me
Can you teach me to turkey hunt??
🤣🤣
Are you guys building a house ?
We’re not sure yet! Weighing options
@46Ten Productions been tring to figure the same thing out with my wife. I told her it's gonna have to wait till the end of May now lol 😆
Shame you did all this shooting and we can’t see any of the patterns worth a crap. Get some splatter targets!!!
Check the episode!
Ewww city life… why
Temporary 😉
