Ledem3500 Predator Turkey

Stoeger Industries has debuted an all-new member of its popular M3500 line of shotguns, the M3500 Predator/Turkey.

The M3500 Predator/Turkey begins with a 24-inch ported barrel chambered for 3.5-inch 12-gauge. Fitted with a stepped, vented rib and high-visibility red-bar front sight, the M3500 Predator/Turkey is ready for the hunt right out of the box. For those who prefer an optic, the receiver comes drilled and tapped for mounting.

Supporting the barreled receiver is Stoeger’s SteadyGrip stock system with a vertical pistol grip for optimal hand positioning and maximum comfort when waiting for the shot. A plush recoil pad combines with the ported barrel to mitigate felt recoil when shooting heavy magnum loads.

In keeping with the shotgun’s field hunting mission, the M3500 Predator/Turkey is finished in Mossy Oak Overwatch camo. And since hands-free mobility is a major assist for the run-and-gun turkey hunter or when hustling to a new coyote set, the M3500 Predator/Turkey comes with integrated sling swivel studs and a silent paracord sling.

As with all M3500 shotguns, the M3500 Predator/Turkey manages loads via the Inertia Driven system. This system, backed by a four-round magazine tube, promises reliable cycling and clean operation for even the heaviest turkey and buckshot loads. To make sure those shot columns hit the mark, the M3500 Predator/Turkey comes with two Mojo specialty chokes designed to deliver tight patterns and consistent point-of-impact performance.

Behind the Bullet: The .22 Long

If we could rewind the clock to 1871, before the .45-70 Government and .45 Colt existed, and when cartridges themselves were just establishing a foothold in the shooting world, you’d find a pair of .22-caliber rimfire designs: the .22 Short and the .22 Long. Aptly named, these cartridges would survive well into the 20th century, ultimately being conquered by the .22 Long Rifle cartridge. But in certain situations, the .22 Long cartridge still makes good sense, and actually has a few specialized applications.
