A lot depends on what you have for components and of how your gun patterns. Back when your EH was made the heaviest commercial load available was 1 1/4 ounce. If they killed turkey's back then with a light load they will work today. The attached pattern was shot at 40 yards with 1 1/8 ounce of 6. I would up it for Turkey but it would probably work fine. If you reload you have lots of choices.
