This is just my opinion but i really think you would have a better time with a shotgun and even better time with a bow. Anyway be safe out there and good luck

Shawn - there is people on this forum that shoots 1700 yards at deer.
I fail to see how shooting a turkey 50 - 100 yards away with a .22 Winchester magnum is going to be as bad as all that.
