Maryland opening day gobbler

[jbmabrey]

I shot a 24 lb. gobbler with 9" beard and 1" spurs at 9 am. Called all morning and had no reply. Pulled put my push pin call from Shannon  and after 3 sets of yelps a gobbler answered from about 100 yards away.
Long story short-used Pedersoli 12 ga. SXS muzzleloader-89 gr. of Black mz and nickel plated shot from Ballistics products. 33 yard shot.
I've killed 3 other turkeys with an encore 12 ga. ml shotgun-this is the 1st with the Pedersoli

Congrats man. Wish I could find the courage to use a BP gun to kill a bird but my time has been limited in the past to the point that I sometimes feel handicapped with just a shotgun. Lol. That's a good bird for sure.
