LEAD TURKEY GUN PATTERNS / Re: 20 gauge windy hill 1 7/16...

Last post by Ihuntoldschool - Today at 02:09:07 AM

Guy's used to rave about the Federal grand slam 7s in 12ga as 40 yard loads, not sure I would trust them?  They will run out of gas fast!

128 at 40 is a good lead pattern no doubt!

Those Federal 7s you're referring to were substantially heavier than lead along the lines of 15g/cc. If you shot one at 40 and didn't kill him you can guarantee you failed on pattern not penetration.

i think the grand slams, atleast the ones I have are just plated lead. The heavyweight 7's you're referring to were some awesome shells.

They never made Grand Slams in 7 lead.  Unless he's referring to the really really old Federal Premium blue/gold box 7.5 shot lead. Those were awesome out to 40 as well.

LEARNING TO TURKEY HUNT / Re: Cooking turkey breasts

Last post by KeeKee - Today at 12:31:12 AM

I almost always slice into nuggets and throw em in a zip lock for a while with a little pickle or jalapeno juice (or both) and crystals hot sauce, toss in seasoned flour and fry in preferably peanut oil. Simple and better than chickfila.

LEARNING TO TURKEY HUNT / Re: When do you load your gun?

Always at the truck, no way a turkey hunter made that rule. Absolutely not loading my shotgun at shooting light no matter what haha.

The last part of my mental checklist after locking the truck is to load my shotgun. Safety's always on and if I'm with a buddy muzzle awareness is always on my mind.

I picked up my first Padgett on trade last week. It was his shorter style caller. I've enjoyed messing with it this past week.
