Im looking to take my shotgun for some in your face action while predator hunting! Is a extended ported turkey choke ok to use?

Also, what load are you guys using? Im considering 3 inch 00 buck or 2's.

Thanks guys!

That choke is fine. I have used duck loads, turkey loads, and 4's. The turkey loads are 3" or 3.5" and easiest to find. 00 buck is to big. You should be good to about 50 yards or so. Cat or Fox you can probably get away with a body shot. Yote NO. Try to shoot them in the faaaccce, it works the best.

I use a turkey choke and 3.5 Dead Coyote. highly effective up to 65 yards, but have had yote kills at 75 yards with it.
