Go back to 3'' shells or go to a standard full choke. With the 3 1/2'' shells you're trying to shove a 10ga load down a 12ga barrel and constricting it even more with a tight turkey will do more harm than good, both to the shot and your shoulder.

BTW......48 pellets in a 10'' circle at 40 yards is an extremely good pattern. Pattern your gun with a turkey target. You'll want a minimum of 9-15 pellets in the kill area. (head/neck). Many say to use a 15'' circle @ 40 yards and 60 evenly spaced pellets is considered good.
