One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

Ok guys shot the 5's again at about 10-15 degree cooler outside. 57 degrees. (Rem 1187 w/ jellyhead max and 3in Win LB #5's)

40 yards and 67 hits in the turkey and 142 in the 12 inch circle. Point of impact was 2-3 inches low possible jerk.
10 inch circle was 143 hits with an overall good even pattern

Browning Belgium A5 12ga 29.5 full choke
Winchester Rooster XR 2.75 #6
28 yards and 57 degrees

179 hits in 12 inch circle and 88 in the turkey.
187 in the 10 inch circle on back of paper. Point of impact was a tad low.

Overall for a 2.75 gun it's a shooter at 30 yards

Rechecked the poa/poi and I was low. Slight adjustment and uh-oh for gobblers!

150 in 12 and 48 in turkey which was less in the turkey but before most was in the beard up to the waddles and only 17 from waddles up. Now it's 30 from the waddles up and the dense part of the pattern covers both sides of him. Compare pics

Also a 4 degree drop in temp over 15 minutes and only 123 in the 10 compared to 143. But the pattern is where it should be now and not low. Man tempature plays a big role.

Guys I have an obsession. 2 more turkey guns are enroute to the FFL man here via FedEx.  Is 6 dedicated turkey guns over kill?

Mossberg 935 24in barrel w/ ssx
Remington 1187 3in, old school bottomland 25 in barrel w/.660 jellyhead maximum
Remington 870 3in, old school bottomland 23 in barrel w/ .660 jellyhead maximum
Remington 870 3.5in, advantage camo 23 in barrel (choke undecided)
Mossberg 835 24in barrel, original real tree camo w/ ssx

Plus bought RoosterXR shells for the old Belgium Browning A5
