Patterned the turkey load.
 

Our season opens May 1. Put the ground blinds out today and patterned the Parker SBT thinking I’ll take one of the gobblers with it. Took two shots at 30 yards with 1 1/4 oz of 7 1/2s. Yeah, he’ll assume room temp!!

Mike, Is that pattern just one of the two shots or both of them?

Either way it's deadly!!





.

It was both. Not many pellets outside that target. If I did a 30” circle it would be a 100% pattern!

Even with just one shot you'd still have more than 40 definite bone-breaking pellets in the kill zone.





.

Holy crap Mike..... Dont shoot low you'll blow his beard off.... and dont shoot straight on while in full strut cause you'll blow the fan to shreds.

Just sayin.....

very good pattern she s a close shooting gun for sure...charlie

After another incident this AM I'd like to use it on some porcupines. Our female shepherd just got a mouth-full of quills and is at the vet. I couldn't help her with this one. "The Great 2021 Porky War" is on!! :draw:

That really sucks Mike!

What earthly purpose do porcupines serve?





.

Target practice? Fertilizer? Food for Fishers?

Mike, Otis has been into them FIVE times, he doesn't learn, so I feel your pain.
