My advice is to go down to your local gunshop and buy a box of Winchester XX Magnum with 1 1/2 oz of copper plated #4 shot. A box of 10 rounds will kill 10 turkeys. I've taken a ton of big toms with 2 3/4 inch loads out of a full choke Remington 870 shotgun and I make one shot kills out to about 50 yards. It only takes a few pellets to kill a turkey and I always go for a body shot just like shooting a quail. I know what I have said goes against the grain of many turkey hunters but I have complete confidence in the load. I have nothing against reloading shotgun shells but not for turkey hunting.
