No question theres far more ethical modern day turkey guns available to todays turkey hunter and I agree Tree we do owe it to the bird to make good clean shots.3 years in a row I guided a little fella that shot a little side by side 410 and is deadly with it.I shot squirrels with him on occasion and he'd drop them dudes out of those digger pines with no trouble,so I made the decision to help him bag a tom!He was 9 at the time and he's going to be 12 and this year will be shooting his sisters 20 gauge but with that said he has harvested 4 toms in the last 3 years shooting that 410 without one gettin away!All these birds were taken inside 25 yards under his dads and my guidance,and that little guy can shoot,"so can his sister for that matter"!!

Anyway heres a pic with him and his dad with that 410...
