The 20-Gauge Turkey Edition weighs in at just 5.9 pounds and comes patterned and ready for the field. With a specialized Rob Roberts design full choke and a lengthened and polished forcing cone, the 20-Gauge Turkey Edition’s ability to achieve more uniform patterns will equate to better accuracy and more hits, not to mention less felt recoil and wad build-up for a cleaner shooting barrel.
