I use the Remington 3.5 magnum with .660 choke and Hevi-shot#6. 50MM Red dot site. No calls! The birds around here are super paranoid, especially near Mackall. You have been hunting in MO, dude you were in hunting paradise! The turkey population around here have just recently reached the numbers necessary to hunt them. They transplanted a bunch of birds behing the Mott Lake compound in the late 60's according to a couple of the oldsters in the area. Yep I know the animals are not of grand size around the area but there are a lot of them to shoot, so I figure its a trade off . I get to shoot more! The birds weight was 24lbs when I shot him, the dressed weight is unknown, I am getting him mounted. "NIce one" TEAM SGT!, the picture was taken at a buds house on the way to the taxidermist. That pond in the backdrop holds some nice bass! Got a 11 pounder on the wall from it! I popped a pretty nice coyote saturday morning . I had a friend and his son over to one of my leases hunting for their 1st turkey. I got him with one my match rifles!
