TSS is only worth it, if you want to shoot turkeys at long range. If you never shoot turkeys past 20 yards, then you’re wasting your time and money on TSS.
There ain’t enough of a difference in weight between 410s, 20 ga, and 12 gauges when setup the same way to make a difference.
Personally, I would save up and buy it in a Tikka. The Tikka will be twisted right for even up to 162 grain bullets. Check out EuroOptics. Tikka also has a rebate going on until October 31(tomorrow).
I killed my elk this year with my Model Seven SS 7-08 with 140 grain Accubonds. Worked pretty well. I don’t have a bullet for show and tell, but yours looks awesome.
If you have a lean big enough to feel, you should always readjust your platform to make it more level. Personally, I will never use straps that pull my top and platform together. I don’t like how unstable it makes the platform, when you take your feet off the platform.
