Stevens model 311A, what turkey loads?

[zedheadmc]

Yep I want to take my old (1958) Stevens 311A out for turkeys this year and am wondering what loads I can use through it safely. It is a 12Ga. and shoots 2 3/4" shells. The gun itself is in very good shape and condition.

Kent turkey loads. Quite effective in short chambers. Devastating to the turkey in longer chambers. Personally, I use 2.75" loads most of the time and have the evidence that they work.
