I had the 1878 10 2-frame Lifter repaired where the heavy loads cracked both sides of the stock. Still wanted to kill a turkey with it so I tried 35 yards with 1 1/4 oz of 6s. With .035 choke in it I would not trust it on a turkey. For some reason, the pattern is thin enough a turkey would run off. At two targets no shots from either barrel hit the vital areas enough for a clean kill. I can't trust it at over 30 yards so I will hold off until I need turkey number three to prolong my hunting season.
