Re: Super Fox Patterning Results

I definitely want to experiment with some different shot sizes in the future. I have just always loved lead 4s or 5s in my other turkey guns, but those are of the more modern variety. I have quite a few Remington SPs that are my go to turkey guns and I shoot hevi-13 7s now days in those with great r...

Re: Super Fox Patterning Results

Apparently, they offer 3 different varieties of the super pheasant. 1 is the standard load, 1300 fps etc. 2. is the high velocity which is 1450 like you had mentioned and 3. is the diamond grade, which is 1300 fps but is supposedly a harder and more precision sorted shot. They say high antimony lead...

Re: Super Fox Patterning Results

Thanks for sharing your findings. One question, are you concerned about the pressure in those loads? Or do you feel pressure is less of a concern in the Super? Great information and good luck out there.🤠 Pressure has nothing to do with it. All US factory loads were loaded to acceptable pressure lev...

Re: Super Fox Patterning Results

That Winchester load is what I would shoot all day every day out of a Soper Fox. Reality is you might shoot 2 or 3 shots a year out of that Super at a turkey. Think I would shoot the other barrel and see what your pattern is also. My last turkey kills with my Fox was 11 yards away. It might be nice...

No problem! They have some kick to them but I would say it was comparable to the Remingtons and the Kent Bismuths I shot this past waterfowl season.

Re: Is this a Super Fox?

I wound up purchasing a case of the Kent Bismuth 2 3/4" #5s. They performed very well.

A Trip Out West

My best buddy from college invited me to come with him to Kansas this weekend and chase some ducks. The weather was going to be frigid, but he has hunted the area before during this time of year and had some luck. The plan was to hunt around some big reservoirs and catch the birds coming back to loa...

Super Fox Turkey Loads Question

Hello all, First off, I am a die-hard turkey hunter. However, I have never killed a bird with a vintage gun, besides my 90s model remingtons :D . My Super is a 2 3/4" gun and I want to pattern it with several different loads to see what will work best. I see several companies make 2 3/4" l...

Went back this morning to a different spot. Fired one shot and killed one duck, but boy was it worth it! May have to mount this one. Band 1.jpg Band 2.jpg Did you get that gun from Craig L? I did not. I bought it from a local gentleman here who had a pretty large gun collection. There is no telling...
