Well dont get me wrong, I love turkey hunting with a shotgun. But i just like the feeling of one bullet commin outta the gun. I think that it would actually be harder to take a turkey with a 22 rather than a shotgun because with a 22 there arnt 50 bb's spred out flyin at the turkey. The only advantage with a 22 is the distance of the shot. Where i hunt, it is usually so thick that if you can see the turkey, its within range. All i really want to know is ifa 22is enough gun to bring the turkey down.
