Grew up in rifle country, my Dad was a rifle guy, always been one myself. But I got a Win. 37A a few years ago and got the idea to make a gun I could shoot grouse, waterfowl, deer and turkeys with and leave it in the jeep year-round. Sort of a Boy Scout, "be prepared" gun. I cut the barrel back to 20", silver soldered on a Brownell Winchoke adapter, stuck a extra tight turkey choke in it and it shot grouse loads and turkey loads like a rifle. This year I thought to try some slugs in it and what I found at the sporting goods store here in town was a couple boxes of Federal "shorty" 1 oz. 1-3/4" 1200 fps shells. So I took it out and shot a couple, they shot right where pointed and then I noticed I still had my turkey choke in. Is this bad? I sure hope not because the simpler the better and if I didn't think about it this time, I will forget again sooner or later. Next someone will say don't shoot steel duck shells in the turkey choke either.
Voices of experience will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dennis
