I'm going with the TSS #7's, 1 1/2 oz. load @ 1100 fps in my 20 ga. Henry. We'll see what happens at 35 yds or less, but I've got a pretty good idea. The few gobblers (tom is a Yankee term for a gobbler) I've shot recently were all inside 35 yds, some much closer.

I just don't think it's any sport in long shots on turkeys, the whole point being to fool him with your calling and tactics until he's about to be in your lap if you don't shoot.

And I absolutely abhor decoys. They're for rubes who have no skills with a call, tactic knowledge, or respect for their quarry. I ridicule them at every opportunity.
