I shot my first ever turkey shoot yesterday (first ever competition for that matter). I won a 5lb Bologna roll.
I was using my SA MilSpec 1911 with a Lee TC 230gr. over 5gr. Bullseye.
Came in second for the ham.

You can miss fast & you can miss a lot, but only hits count.
Congrats!

lol just kidding, nice shooting
Good job EMC45. I would rather eat the Bologna than a turkey any day.

Way to go, no bb's to pick out of the meat and no feathers!!
This one is a paper target shoot. They go to the freezer and get your bounty after the match.

That look on your face, when you shift into 6th gear, but it's not there.
that's a bunch of baloney!
Dang good deal !! Fried baloney and eggs ...YEP ! Glad you did good .
No turning back , No turning back !
Congrats on the win. Always nice to hear what mold and load was a winner too.
Scrap.... because all the really pithy and emphatic four letter words were taken and we had to describe this source of casting material somehow so we added an "S" to what non casters and wives call what we collect.
Kind of hard to claim to love America while one is hating half the Americans that disagree with you. One nation indivisible requires work.

Good shooting.
All I ever got for winning matches was trophy. Sure would rather had the meat.
Good shooting.
Shot 2 heats at today's turkey shoot. Didn't win. My work buddy won a turkey and a turkey breast. Another shooter there won both hams!
