1 1/2 oz. loads are way too heavy for your gun!

Use a "standard" or better, a light load of 1 oz. of #6 shot for turkeys. Remember - no body shots! Head and neck shots with no feathers to absorb the shot are what you're taking turkeys with... extra velocity and heavier shot charge won't do it for you - but an accurate head shot at under 40 yards with MOD or tighter chokes will put any longbeard on the dinner table for you.
