Default its getting close to turkey season

i ve got 4 weeks till turkey season here in mississippi so i thought i d better remind you fellas... i ve got to get me some 8 ga rounds made up and some for the 10 ga s and the 12 s... i m gona load upsome 2 s and 4 s in each the 10 and the 8 but will probably load 4 and 6 s in the 12...sure woulda like to have got some of those 4 inch brass shells from rocky mountain but they will not get here in time for opening day but mite get here by the end of the season.i think a 3 oz load in the 4 inch shell will make a good turkey load...i hope my turkey hunting goes better than my deer hunting for sure... charlie

I have thought about trying some turkey hunting. Might be just my sport. You don't have to walk around much and I have lots of shotguns. I already have some 8s loaded up with no 4s. Will have to ask around and see if I can find out were there are some turkeys around here.

Wayne if you go a little north to some national forests, it ought to be beautiful turkey territory.

Charlie,

You are not supposed to kill the whole flock at one time.

I'm with you Charlie. I can hardly wait. This year the Parker Hammer 8 gauge is going out. May need to get some tips on some turkey loads. The W C Scott * will have to stay home this time.
