My dad used one to rabbit hunt with and he loved his, I think it would make an exceptional turkey stick.

Past January I bought one for my son.  I have ammo, chokes, and optics - just need a decent day to shoot.  The trigger is quite heavy but I am hoping a trip a gunsmith can make it a little more manageable.

I have used a Remington 11-87 youth 20 gauge mag. for the past four years.
Shoot, doves, ducks, geese, and turkeys with this gun.  Light in weight, no recoil and up to 40 yards with 3" mag shells will shoot with any of my 12 gauge guns.  I love the hevi shot loads and Federal mag shot 1 1/2 oz. loads for turkeys and geese.  Dennis :turkey2:
