i know of more turkeys killed with a single shot or pump action where youd only get one shot, than i know of with autoloaders, what im sayin is you have to be confident enough in your gun to KNOW you will kill the turkey with your first shot. i just havent had the opportunity yet.but when it comes. hes goin down. so just get the best gun for your budget, get some good loads, a good full to super full choke and blast away.
