I've finally broke over to try something lighter this year. After carrying my 1300 for I don't know how many seasons I've decide on a change. I got to thinking of the number of times I've had to or got to shoot more than once at a turkey and out of twenty some years it has been only a couple. Once I killed a bird on the second shot and once I missed twice at one running away. Now I'm not say I haven't missed more birds than that but those are the only ones I can recall shooting at more than once most birds I've missed never offered me a second shot. So after much debate I've decided to try a single shot this year this baby hear weighs right at 6lbs with the sling on it and about 6 1/2lbs with scope and base vs 8 3/4lbs for my 1300. I've tried the Hevi Magnum Blends and have some Nitro Mega Weights and a Rhino to try as well. I feel very confindent in it with the Hevi Shot choke and Blends out to 40 yards but I'll do some more testing this weekend. One thing for sure Running and Gunning and climbing those steep knobs around here will be a little easier this year (I hope).
