Might carry Tyler's H&R single shot. With 3" Winchesters in it, it shoots very well.

I have a nice laminated stock 870 that I won back in 2006 in the fireman's gun raffle...shot my last turkey with it and believe I will shoot my next...I'm gonna leave the rifled barrel w/scope on my 12 gauge and stick with the 20...its light and does the job...

i always compare using a 20 gauge for turkeys to using an ultra light rod with 4 lb test for big bass.it is doable but a challenge.
