And then for those who use NO sighting system at all on your turkey gun - don't come back asking why I missed a bird?
IF you use a choke designed as the tightest choke possible to turkey hunt and hunt at close range - well yor pattern is just short of a shotshell slug!

AND Shooting today's turkey loads in today's turkey guns is nothing even close to wing shooting on any gsme bird either upland or waterfowl.

This ain't pass shooting folks - not even close and you will wound more than you kill!

Call 'em up close - Take the challenge!

Ps I put a Nikon Monarch Turkey Pro on my 11-87 6 yrs ago. From the get go that I got that scope dialed in - I have not had to adjust it. I do check the pattern - each yr.

Word! Make sure to check that scope every year. And if you change shells!
