This spring will be my first time turkey hunting and I would like some info on what type of scatter gun to use.
Option 1 I have a Mossberg 395kb bolt action 12 ga. with an adjustable choke full, mod, and imp. this shot gun has a bead front sight and notch rear.
Option 2 winchester 1300 pump 12ga. with a mod. choke.
Option 3 savage semi auto 12 ga. with no choke.
Most of the people I know use semi auto guns. Would it be foolish of me to use the bolt action? I am kinda leaning toward that one because of the full choke setting and the sights. But there is no way for a fast 2nd shot if needed. I cant find any turkey chokes around here for the winchester. Would a mod. choke group tight enough for lets say a 30 yrd. shot?
