[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 1946466, member: 12443"] Well of coarse dedicated turkey hunters will for the most part frown on hunting them with a rifle. But as they age and develop health issues of their own, some at least have a mind change on it. In the early 70s i bought a Tikka combination 12gauge, 222, over under design with a see thru scope mount with a low power scope. Thinking it would also serve for taking at least the dumber grouse. While i did manage to take a couple turkey and a few grouse with it, it really wasent very good at either in my opinion. First off, the one you first go for could end up being missed, but here comes another and guess what, your gun isnt loaded. Coulda, Shoulda, Woulda. So now i just use a scope sighted 223 with a detachable magazine resting on the dashboard, and at 85 im still hunting and shooting turkey. At least thats what i call it, others can call it what ever they like. [/QUOTE]
