M4 turkey hunting

[NCswamp13]

Does anyone here use their m4 turkey hunting? If so, how do you have it setup?

I have taken mine no luck getting a turkey with it yet. I have an indian creek choke for it and I use a vickers padded sling and I patterned it with the hevi shot magnum blend 3" shells. Not sure if I'm allowed to post a link to the choke tube website or not but I can pm it to you if you'd like. I'm getting a SBE 3 to use for turkey and probably some duck hunting when the optifade camo one comes out in May. I like the weight savings plus the ability to use 3.5" shells if needed.

I scored my first m4 turkey last season, found a choke and shot combination that is lights out.

Nice work.

M4 strikes again

Man I wish could hunt where you do. Good work

[NCswamp13]

Where you from Jimbo?

[jimbo45]

Central Fl and Im fixing to head out to the woods.

Any luck?

[jimbo45]

No luck heard one gobble and saw a single hen. Not surprising for the final weekend of the season.

We have 2.5 more weeks so I'm hoping to get another before it goes out.

NCswamp13 - what choke and shot combination are you using in your M4. Could you post a picture of the pattern you’re getting?  Thanks.
