What turkey loads are you using in your Parker

[charlie cleveland]

I just got through loading some 8 ga ammo and some 10 ga ammo for turkeys...the 8 ga I will shoot in the single barrel davenport its 2 1/2 ounce of no 6 lead pushed by 45 grains bluedot its a mild load...the 10 ga I loaded up some 10 ga Remington low brass sureshot hulls...I loaded 1 1/4 ounce of no 6 lead with 20 grains of reddot...plain on shooting this in a parker lifter 10 ga with 30 inch plain steel barrels in the 5000 serial range made in 1875 no chokes gona have to get close with this gun...ive got 2 of these plain steel barrel guns the other 10 ga is in the 4000 range made in 1875 also...I reckon they must have not put chokes in this year...both guns as tight as new...now to see if I can find a turkey all I ve seen so far is a coupla tracks...can t walk like I use too so I guess I will have to ambush one...go getem fellas....charlie
