Hey, ease up gang. I didn't buy a domestic turkey and blast it ( a la Jim Rikkoff) with a .22-250 steppin out at almost 4000 fps. muzzle. MY WACKO BUDDY DID-- HE WOULD RATHER BLOW UP PRAIRIE DAWGS THAN HUNT DEER OR TURKEY- FOR DEER HE USES A Win 30-30 170 grainer Silvertip, and for turkey, as he is a legit hunter, he uses a Ithaca Mag-10 and shoots for the neck- at 60 yards or less, dead bird- The main reason we cannot use a CF rifle of any calibre for Turkeys here in MI is safety- we also have 'numbnutz" who pepper the hen K-Mart plastic foolies- related to the same idiots that spray your duck decoys in front of your blind each Fall- It was his money and his experiment- Not Mine- and he could have easily taken a head shot, I've shot woodchucks and prairie doggies with him for years- and a 300 yard shot between the "running lights" of a SD prairie dog is a "piece of cake"--
