Default RE: Your first turkey killer

870 Wingmaster Magnum 12ga

They damn sure don't make them like they used to. I bought that gun when I was 11.... had to cut a hell of a lot of grass to earn the $180 they wanted for it (used). It had a 28" full choke vent rib barrel that my Dad had thin-wall chokes put in (they are actually Invector chokes... it blows people's minds).

I used a straight up full flush fit choke and Remington 'Camo Shell' (OD Green hull with black brass) 2oz #6s. First bird I killed after ten years of trying was at 36 yards. Killed five or six more with it until I bought the turkey rifle in early 2003. I still shoot a lot of ducks, geese, deer and doves with it though.
