   I have shot some turkeys with .22 subs and stingers at the base of the neck, in the neck and straight in the head to save the meat. Rimfire seems marginal and they are hardy creatures. Good luck just...

   Find where they roost wait till dark then with a red filtered headlamp and a pair of loppers go and take your pick. I kid you not, the Mrs did this a few years ago when she got sick of waiting for me...

   I have had one take several 223 Sierra Blitz rounds and still keep walking. It's insides were totally minced, I guess it was too stupid to realise it was dead.

   I've shot quite a few turkeys with a 22. It's not great, especially if you want to keep breast meat undamaged. I normally aim for the base of the neck and they usually fall down, but not always which...

   Turkeys can soak up a centre hit with a .223 and not tip over immediately. Most go down of course but they are more resilient than you'd expect. I feel a rimfire is marginal at best, and has been...

    121678 The peacocks will be fun. First you will get some with the 22. They soon figure out what the safe distance is. Then you go for the 17HMR. Another 2 hunts and they adjust. Now comes the 223...
