Charlie,
I fired on a reluctant gobbler Saturday morning after two hours of steady conversation. The penetration of the 9s was amazing; trouble was it was into a metal cattle gate at forty yards away! The bird flew away and I wasted a second shot without effect about seventy yards away.
I forgot two things. I kept saying aim to the left since the 12 VH shoots to the right at long distance; that was until I shot and I aimed straight at his head. The second thing is I could see the turkey, but did not account for the gate being in the way. I'm jinxed this year. Two misses so far.
