Thanks to all whom have posted. I have gotten many a good chuckle out of the responses.
After reading this, I think I'll throw a couple of Turkey loads in my nephews gun just to see what happens. I did that to my brother when we were kids. 2 2 3/4 dove loads then a 3inch duck load. He got a bloody nose, I laughed, then we fought. I miss him.

Just remember using #4 shot you get less bb's per shell,
so your kill zone is smaller, not sure what choke your using,
but try a full or tighter choke on your hunts. Will give you
some better range, after many years of hunting I just wave at
those high flyers!
Still like the tank or pond hunting just prior to dark!

This is from opening day last year. When you hunt public, you have to step your game up. 
Haha yea I polished that thing for hours.

you planning to eat these birds or just blow them up? Maybe trying to breast them in mid flight. I hope you have some good pain pills for when you get hoem because you might need them for the shoulder.

I personally will not shoot at those rascals with anything smaller than a 10 gauge 6 shot reload.
