Jack is right!! You need to find out what your gun likes.

I have used Rem Premier copper plated 6's in my 12 ga for years.

Two springs ago my grandson finally was old enough to be able to hunt (12) with the Ithaca Super Single Full choked 20 ga that I bought for him when he was 4 weeks old.

I bought a box of Rem Premier 6's. I got a great pattern. He has shot birds the last two spings and the both went down stone cold DEAD.

My feelings are that it doesn't take large shot to kill a turkey. It take a good hit and with the difference in number of shot per load, 4's just do not have the amount of shot that a load of 6s does.

As far as range I have never had any problem with the smaller shot doing the job at longer ranges.
