[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5826796, member: 1409"] Truth is, at 40 yds or less, it may matter little no matter what particular shell is in your chamber. And most long-term turkey hunters still kill most their birds under 30 yds? I know I do. When I began turkey hunting, no one had ever told me I "needed" a special dedicated gun and special "turkey" shells for turkey hunting. I killed my first several turkeys with the same gun(s) and same shells I was using for squirrels & ducks, i.e. just regular old #5 & #6 lead loads. I even killed at least two longbeards with 1 1/8 oz #7 1/2 field loads in my Sweet 16, which was once the gun I used for ducks, quail, squirrel, even deer. Now doing most my turkey hunting with a 20 ga, but do load it up with TSS, whether it's needed or not. [/QUOTE]
