Shot was roughly 40 yards .30 cal 56 grain slug. Placement was where neck meets feathers. This was my second. That area seems to be the spot with pcp

Thank you. I wish we could hunt turkey with pcp NH. I keep after the state but they do not respond. Nice shot very nice mount

answer i got from local DNR guy in Kentucky was " no bb guns for huntin' turkey ."

This bird was taken in Virginia. You can shoot turkey with rifles in VA. I think one of the only states that allows it

Luckily for you these aren't bb guns!

Here in Florida you can us .20 cal minimum for Turkeys, .30 for gator and deer, no FPE minimum.

That must've been one hell of a hunt man, I shoot geese with my airguns and for some reason it gets my blood pumping

Nice shot. Price seems fair for the mount. We are about $700 for a shoulder mount on a whitetail here now.
