My buddy said, "its just a jake, want me see what my gun has?
For anyone to even comtemplate testing the limits of their weapon with sights on a live animal is irresponsible and senseless. That is done at the range in the off season. Next time, tell your buddy to hit the range in the off season if he is curious as to the maximum distance of his weapon.

I dont get why you would say that Rebel Hog. He said he doesnt like shooting that far. Maybe you read it incorrect.

To come on here and ask a question like that when there are to many on here who spend many hours learning on how to Call and take a Turkey at close range is humiliating to those who have pride in True Turkey Hunting.

I pattern my gun out to 50 yards. I know I CAN kill a bird every shot at 50, so I set that as my max, although I have passed on some at that distance, I like to get them 35 or closer, thats what I call a chip shot for my gun. Anyhow, I have killed one at 59 yards, I thought he was like 50 or I wouldn't have shot. But that Hevishot rolled him upgood at 59. But 77 yards!? I believe you he did itbut I think it was stupid.

My longest shot was this season. I accidentally walked right up to a roosted bird (actually, he was about 50 yards away). I sat down immediately when I hear him gobble so close. I soon as I sat down I noticed a large creek between me and him. The creek was roughly 45 yards away. Well once he flew down, he would not cross that creek. He would just walk to the edge and look right at me and gobble. So after about an hour of this, I had to make the decision whether or not to try and shoot. I have patterned my gun out to 50 yards before and get good enough results, but I was till uncertain. I usually don't take long shots, if anything, I'm too conservative with my shots. Well anyways, I ended taking the shot and missing and ruining my hunt and my season with it. That was the only bird I seen or heard all season and I never heard him after I shot at him. Needless to say, I will no longer attempt any shots farther than 40 yards.
