If you were sitting in a blind and 24 turkeys strolled up to feed about 30 yards from you, what firearm would you want to have with you?

It wouldn't be a 22 Mag pistol 'cause I MIGHT MISS. But I wouldn't know about that. LOL After that little episode I put my trusty 12 ga. in the blind.

My Model 60 Marlin 22.

At 30 yards, with a body shot they will run about 10 to 15 yards and fall over.

A Claymore with a trip wire that you could pull from your blind, would probablly be best for that. Just kidding

I think a 12 ga. would be the best bet



Bartender, bring me anything except brake fluid, cause I don't plan on stopping!

You need a drink warning with that one. Almost ended up with coffee all over my screen.

Would have to say the 12 ga. Think I could throw an arrow farther than I could shoot it!
