Default Shotgun Shooting/Turkey Questions

Hi guys,

I will admit I don't know much about shotguns but I am sort of addicted to Turkey hunting (did it once). My first shot gun was a Mossberg 835 it had fiber optic rear and front sight. I now own a Stoeger 2000 and it only has a front white bead site.

I really just need general shooting info about a shotgun.

1) Do I need a rear sight for Turkey hunting?

2) What shells should I use to hunt Turkey's? What shells should I sight in with?

3) What is the drop on a shotgun? (ie how much shoot over at 40 or 50 yards?

4) Max range?

5) How many pellets should I be seeing in what size circle?

6) One eye or two eyes? Or do I get on target with two and then switch to one to take the shot?

I need answers to all these questions. Thanks

Tom
