I have been invited to hunt turkey in a couple of weeks and would like to take one with my Competitor in 22 K-Hornet. The big question is which bullet to use to get the job done without ruining the meat? I have a good variety of bullets ranging from the 33 grain V-Max to 55 grain full metal jackets. What would you use and why?

The lightest most accurate bullet placed in the head or neck is first choice. If that isn't possible how about a 55 grain FMJ placed right at the wing root into the body.
Or any other 55 grain that will NOT expand much.

We can't use anything but shotgun in TN and we still had a guy kill another hunter a couple of years ago! [Frown]
