sbo76 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 (edited) What would be the most accurate round / gun for hunting turkey. (Head shot) I was thinking a 22-250 but am open to anything. I don't want to break the bank but am open to an new rifle. Edited August 21, 2015 by sbo76 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johniac7078 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Why not use a shotgun? I've killed birds at 50 yards with a 3 inch turkey load (12g). Short of that, anything in .17 cal would be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 A good AR will work quite well, just be sure it's sighted in as well as possible. For that matter an accurate .22 LR will do an excellent job. Remember, turkeys aren't in the "Big Five" of wild game animals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
