No less of an authority than Archibald Rutledge recommended no. 2 in one barrel and no. 4 in the other barrel. For what it is worth. All of the posts on here are very helpful and go to show there is no easy answer. Rutledge shot a Parker for years and apparently bagged close to 400 turkeys in his lifetime, hunting mostly in South Carolina, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
