RE: the pattern
Any pellets not hitting the turkey's head are wasted. Many body hits never make it through the feathersor just break the skin. You want a tight enough pattern to put a lot of hits in the head and/or neck.

RE: the pattern
Most say that 8 rounds of bb in the head and neck area will do. However, I belive that we owe it to the bird and the sport to make a fast and clean harvest. There for I like to use a load that puts 12 or more bb's in the kill zone.
Good Hunting.
