410 and Turkey

[Bruce Day]

My good buddy the Missouri turnip farmer bagged a turkey this morning with a PH 410. One half ounce of 7 1/2's at 20 feet with a head shot kills them every time.

Nicely done. Next is the meal which I'm sure will (or has been) delicious. Cheers, Jack

That'll teach him to strut in someone's turnip patch. Any man that takes a .410 after a tom I admire. And not even using a 3 inch shell. Please tell me he had a 3 incher in the other barrel with at least 11/16 shot for long range shots.

Doesn't your farmer buddy know you need 3 1/2" Ultra Mags with 1 5/8 oz. of #4 copper plated kryptonite shot to kill a turkey?

Sheesh - Some people!!


Anyway...Congratulations to Mr. Turnip Farmer, whoever he is

What is more rare than taking a Turkey with a 410, is taking it with a PH 410, The Parker Story says only 5 made??....Thats rare-Nice pic

[Mills]

It goes to show that all it takes is one well placed shot. Aren't PH 410's about as rare as Invincibles?

[Bruce Day]

Yes, about as rare. There is even a fake, or more politely, upgraded, P 410 made from a V and passed off as a P . This is an original P 410.

And here is a wild Kansas rooster shot in the head and dead in the air from this 410. Just pick your shots and shoot well.

My wife shoots a 410 Marlin/LC Smith on quail and she either kills them dead or misses them altogether, as it should be.

[Richard Flanders]

Too cool. He was threatening to try this last fall. Glad it worked; no reason it shouldn't.

Not Parker, but I tried using a .410 on a dove shoot once. What a waste of a perfectly good plantation dove shoot invite. A very humbling experience.
