Congrats on a great bird Ben. Hunting turkeys with black powder really appeals to me. I may have to give it a try next year. Ron

Nice bird! What kind of caps were you using?
They are German Dynamit Nobel No. 1075 plus. They are a hot cap #11 I cleaned out the hammer mechanism, it was dirty. I don't think it hit the cap hard enough.

Ben, that's the best looking bird I've seen this year. Those white tips are beautiful, and with a smokepole! Well done!

I'm not much into front stuffers.  But some day I would like to bag a turkey with a hillbilly smoothbore and some black powder.

Congratulations on a beautiful bird :tup:
