Not really completely on the subject. But this last spring my hunting partner decided he needed a new shotgun. So he goes out and buys a brand new mossberg turkey edition. Camo and all. I grab my trusty rem. 1100.So we go out I set us up. Call 2 birds in, one for me one for him. Watch em tear our decoy to hell. I count to three and BOOM. my turkey falls and flops. Then i hear BOOM BOOM. he empties his gun and the turkey saunters off.My point is Getwhat works for you. opinions are great place to start butno matter what gun you get the thing is to know your gun. pattern it and know your capabilities with it. a bigger gun or bigger shell does not guarantee akill.
