There is a difference between all the #s you throw around as 100% fact and killing turkeys! I respect that you have a model that you go by and it works for you. I also believe some of us tend to be slightly narrow minded on what is ethical again I'm not advocating 60 yard shots with a 20 gauge I am simple saying "that turkey dies at 60 yards"
*** I'm not saying the target bird wouldn't be dead. My comment was based on your second sentence, which I read as saying you wouldn't shoot that far with that few pellets in the general kill area just like brad and I wouldn't! PS: I haven't tossed around any number in any of my posts and am well aware of the greatly reduced number of shot in a 20 gauge compared to a 12 gauge, especially the 3 1/2 inchers. That ls why some of us are questioning the pattern.
