I don' t know where he is from but it is legal in some states [:@] TX, WV, VA and PA (fall only in PA) and some other states allow rifles for turkey hunting.

I don' t condone hunting turkeys with rifles, but it' s your choice. If you do hunt turkeys with a rifle try using a .22 centerfire instead of a rimfire. A turkey can be a tuff ol' bird and many have been hit by a rimfire bullet and went on to die a bad death.

P.S. For anyone wanting to tell the ol' story about the one eyed eskimo woman who killed a kodiak brown bear with an ol' rusty Sears single shot .22lr I ask you this.... I know of a young boy who killed a Giant with a slingshot.... If a giant were to show up at your house would you grab your son' s slingshot or the biggest rifle you have? Use the right tool for the job.
