Mr. Longbeard, I would like to hear your reasoning behind not using #6 shot within 40 yards. I have never heard anyone who said #6s would not kill a turkey within that range.
I would truly like to use #5s but my gun patterns them like crap. I guess if tere is a turkey in the woods I can' t kill with #6s within 40 yards, I would probably run from it. []
