Before liability concerns became rife, our local fire department held turkey shoots prior to the start of hunting season. No scopes allowed and shooting off hand at a pie plate at 50 yards. The plate had a 1" black dot in the center. If you could hold it, the non scoped Browning could put a slug into that 1" every time. I won over 30 turkeys and hams with that gun.
I've been to or heard of a pile of turkey shoots in my lifetime . But that's the first time I ever heard of turkey shoots using slugs .
