I haven't been keeping up with the cost of shotgun ammunition for the last couple of years but a few days ago I received a sale circular in the mail from one of my favorite outdoor sporting goods store, The Sportsman's Den in Shelby, Ohio and experienced "sticker shock" over the price being asked for tungsten (gold?) shot "turkey" shells. $49.99 for five Browning 3 1/2", 2 1/4 oz. shells; $44.99 for five Federal 3", 1 3/4 oz. shells! I feel like Rip Van Winkle being roused from a decade of ignorant sleep.
If I was going turkey hunting this spring, I'd either have to put a box in lay-away and make weekly payments or go hunting for one at Krogers with "Butterball" stamped on its behind.
