Probably a first for this old girl. ![](http://www.jesseshunting.com/photopost/data/500/medium/Photo213.jpg) Took my old 1871 W&C Scott hammer gun turkey hunting the other day (12ga, with full length 20 ga. Briley tubes with Improved-Modified chokes, Remington Nitro 2&3/4", 1&1/8oz of #4's). Worked great at 20 yards.

Congradulations. I always get a thrill when using vintage guns like this. It appears you got a double there? Jim

The dog found and broke the flock in thick timber about 200 yards away from me....called the first one back after about 30 minutes, called the second one in about 10 minutes later.

He's tired alright....he's a cross from a Boykin male and Watchtelhunde female (He's 6 years old and has well over 100 kills).

Had to look that one up. Turkeys big ugly and thick as fleas in South Jersey this yr but that's about as usual.

Very nice. I'm waiting for first day here. I have two nice flocks right around the house that I see almost daily, grazing in my field when I get home from work. Surprising, since I am getting more surrounded by poachers in buggies (Amish Dutch) every year.
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

Joe, we would like to hear about the retrieves. Personally, I couldn't resist the urge to tell my Wirehair to "Go Fetch".
