[QUOTE="Groot, post: 2400636, member: 111981"] I have a weatherby SA-459 turkey (im pretty sure it’s the 459 model) and it was everything I wanted in a dedicated turkey gun and more for about 650 bucks out the door. It’s only a 3 inch gun but in all seriousness unless you’re looking too shoot birds at 70-80+ yards you don’t need anything more. Big boomers are cool but on a perfect Crisp spring morning listening to birds gobble the last thing I would want is to get rattled by a 3.5 12 gauge turkey load. Like many others have suggested a 20 is more than enough with load technology and availability nowadays. Also the 459 also had a 20 gauge model. I’m not sure if they make them anymore though, might be worth looking into though [/QUOTE]
