    Marko, our fall season runs with the regular deer season, from early November until early January. The Spring season is more exciting, except for the heat and the ticks and mosquitoes!

    Some hunt turkey that way down here, but I suspect it is cause they are such poor callers that they can not get the turkey in to shot gun range.

    I use a handgun( or cast in a rifle)and I can call them into slingshot range, thank you very much. Of the more than one hundred that I've killed in 50 years I've taken two with a shotgun. We don't have the shotgun only restrictions of less free places. I have enjoyed working up low velocity cast loads just for turkey, starting with the 30-30 decades ago. I also have shot a few with full power deer loads in the fall season- because I was deer hunting at the time. Like with a shotgun, shot placement is paramount.

    One real advantage here of using rimfire to pop Grouse: No shot in the meat, no pain or worse, broken teeth from biting down on said shot.

    The 5 shot group is the 120gr/4350 combo and the 3 shot group is the 180gr/ reclaimed 4198combo. At 40yds.
    The C309113F had an occasional feeding mishap, maybe due to shorter oal. The C309170F fed perfectly.
