A Club near me has an event much like this one. They count the most pellet holes in a 2 inch circle at 50 yds.

So would my Mossberg maverick security pump shotgun be acceptable?

As long as everything is the same as it left the factory and our .660 check passes through, its good to go.
Only 12 gauge barrels get measured. 16, 20, and 410 will get a visual inspection.
Scopes & dot sights are also acceptable, but most are using iron sights.

I added a pistol grip stock but the length of pull should be the same.
Thanks.

Aftermarket stocks are OK. We’re more worried about barrels & chokes!

It's official, there will be no more turkey shoots this spring. The final 3 weeks have been cancelled.
We'll start up again in the fall, assuming everything is back to normal by then.
Thanks & stay safe.
