They're plenty good shooting birds on the fly with an improved cylinder. But with the super tight patterns on my turkey guns combined with an increased breathing and heart rate during the final few seconds of a turkey hunt, a red/green dot is a good idea for me.

Quote from: MK M GOBL on January 31, 2021, 10:32:17 PMWith this spring being my 30th year turkey hunting and for the 25 of those years I have had a scope on my turkey gun, here's my read on this.Originally I had an 870 12ga I owned that I used, after a few years and some "misses" (just had a bead to aim with) I decided to build a dedicated turkey gun. I found a used Rem 1187 SP 12ga, I had a gunsmith team at the time and did a bunch of work to build this gun for me. One thing I told them is that I wanted a scope on the gun seeing that I am aiming at a point instead of at the bird like "wing shooting" Things that a scope did for meI was able to sight/adjust the gun for POA to POI, with shooting a custom Briley Super Full Straight Rifled Turkey Choke matched to the gun.The Circle-X reticle gave me a "He's at 40 yards" or closer range estimation built in to the scopes designThis also gave me the "He's in tight/close" exact point of aim, I did make sure of this by setting 10 yard targets to shootAnd a few other benefits came to light over the years, I do a lot of Learn to Hunt Programs, Youth Hunts and introducing other adult hunters to turkey hunting. The scope was always an easy way for those to see/understand the POA or what I call "The Circle of Death" just put the circle where the feathers meet the neck.I guess I have just never seen the disadvantage to having/using a scope on the turkey gun. I have made flying and running shots with it and it has been flawless in performance.Anymore just can't imagine not having a scope on the turkey gun.MK M GOBL
