Has anyone had any luck using pheasant loads for hunting turkeys, specifically in a 20 gauge? When looking at the shot size, load weight, and velocity they start to look about the same.
Federal Premium Wing Shok
20 gauge 3" 1 1/4 oz. #5 1300 fps $.80 per shell

Federal Premium Mag-Shok Turkey
20 gauge 3" 1 5/16 #5 1185 fps $1.10 per shell

So aside from the extra 1/16 oz of lead in the turkey shell, why wouldn't the Wing Shok be just as good or better considering it patterns well? The Wing-Shok has an extra 115 fps. Your thoughts?
