bigredk8 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Will a 12 gauge 2 3/4 do the trick for turkeys? Wats the max distance its lethal at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strut10 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Will a 12 gauge 2 3/4 do the trick for turkeys? Wats the max distance its lethal at? Sure it will !!! Max effective range will be determined by some time spent at the range pattern testing. It will end up, most likely being somewhere between 30 and 40 yards, depending on shot size, choke, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first Tom was taken with a Winchester 1200, 2 3/4" #4, with a Comp-N-Choke at 35 yrds ,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkeygirl Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Sure will do the job. I would recommend shooting your load and see how it performs. I shoot a 20ga Mossberg out to 30-35 yards max patterning. but most of the time the turkeys are in closer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
