Introducing My perfect Turkey Gun

[Adrian J Hare]

This has taken alot of time and thinking and building to bring to the end and be able to say I'm finished building the perfect Turkey gun.

I started off with a Bennelli Nova 20ga in Advantage Timber camo.

I had this gun taken down and had the Forcing Cone lengthened and a Custom turkey choke made for it. I also had the reciever drilled and tapped for a B-style scope mount. This is what I got out of a 40 yard shot with this gun. Now this count is a total of 173 shot in a 1 foot circle.



Another problem I had was I use a scope on a Turkey gun and Like the Tasco 1.75x5x20 for a turkey scope. Not heavy and is well balanced on the reciever. But these scopes don't come in camo, so A very good friend looked after this problem. I had the scope camoed in the same pattern to match the gun.

Another problem was the trigger pull on this such gun , it was terrible, sloppy and way to much travel in the trigger system , so I descovered a Modifiction to get rid of all the Travel and set the trigger to the right squeeze as I wanted.



I then had the next problem and that was I am too short in the arms for most firearms. This creates a problem when comford is needed when setup with a scoped gun and using jackets in the cooler weather , so I also cut down the stock on this gun to fit me just right.

I have over come all the problems there is in a gun to make the perfect gun to head to the woods. Here is look at the finishing product, with the cut off of the stock.

Thanks guys, I did use this gun in the spring and I think it was a good idea because I was able to find all the points that I did not like after a change from a Remington to the Bennelli. I was so used of shooting the Rem , that it did not feel right with this gun , so its too late I was changing what needed to be done. A shot this weekend proved to me that you can make a gun do as you want.

Bob , thats a good question about weight, I have never weighted it , but can tell you it is a heck of alot lighter then the 12 ...BT
