One of the first NWTF edition Winchester Model 1300's, 22 or 23 inch barrel, with laminated stock and forearm.  Put a Kick's Gobbling Thunder @ .655 on it to shoot Federal 2 oz. loads of copper plated 6's.  Been good to me........ :chuckle:

Benelli Nova, though I would like to get a shotgun specifically for turkeys. I just don't have the money yet.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
