Let's see your turkey guns!!!

[Rick James]

I'll start.

My go to gun is the 870 Shure Shot. She is wearing a Mueller 2-7x33 with the illuminated circle dot. I use it for predators/turkeys, and this scope is perfect for both. I've got an Indian Creek BDS in her, and run 2.25oz Hevi #6's through her. When I patterned last weekend my best pattern on a dirty barrel put 212 in 10" at 40 yards. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

My backup gun, and the one I loan out for others that I call for is a Mossberg 500 with the 22" ported turkey barrel. This was my first true "turkey" gun, and it has killed countless birds now for me and for others that I've called for. It's wearing a cheapo 2.5x Tasco that somehow still holds zero 3 years after I last changed loads. I'm using a Gobble Stopper Xtreme .655 in the front, and putting 1.75oz Winchester Xtended #6's through it. This one has also taken several 40-50 yard birds in it's life, and makes a great backup/loaner.

Let's see those turkey guns!!

Ya'll have heard it before, but here goes... .12 gauge Benelli M1S90 Camo Turkey Gun w/sling and 24" barrel, Indian Creek Black Diamond Strike .665" choke, Hevi-13 3-2-6 load.

Also have shot them with my Ithaca 37 12Ga and Lyman .54 cal with round ball and black powder. Round balls are amazingly accurate with a slow twist barrel.

That bird was wild captured in a cannon net set by a Penn State Research Study. They had been banding birds in both PA and NY as part of their study. The 2nd band was a new experimental type they were testing...

I spoke on the phone with one of the Research Coordinators and got some great info from her. My tom was banded in the same county as I killed it, but made it almost 15 miles from where it was caught in the cannon net...

 

[crow sniper]

Mine is a Mossberg 835

 

[yooperman]

It used to be my gramps duck gun before the lead ban. The next time I go turkey hunting this old Winchester is going with. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
