[QUOTE="bman73, post: 624121, member: 31591"] I have never had the opportunity to try it on turkey(none around here that i know of) but I do use a Hammond Game Getter for taking small game with a big bore rifle. It is a cartridge specific adapter that you load a cast bullet or lead ball of your caliber in one end and a Hilti blank in the other end. It is a match for your rifle so it feeds just like a normal round would, just make sure when you eject it you pick it up:). I have shot a rabbit with it at just over 50 yards and had a complete pass through, I know its only a rabbit but keep in mind it is a 200 grain cast bullet in a 358 Norma mag being driven by a blank. Not too sure what is required to kill a turkey but with good shot placement and using the highest power blanks for concrete I would think that would be enough. As a bonus it is also very quiet, comparable to a door slamming with the heavy blanks and much quieter with the lower power loads. If any one is interested I can post pictures of it [/QUOTE]
