Turkey Rifle
« on: November 01, 2004, 08:28:19 AM »
I would like to get a .32 caliber bp rifle for squirrels/rabbits.  I also thought it may be fun to use for turkey.  If I limited myself to 35-40 yards or less (typical shotgun ranges) would a .32 be adequate?  I have been looking at the Traditions Crockett rifle.  Is this rifle any good?  Who has the best deal on this rifle?  There doesn't seem to be allot of new production .32's out there.  This one seems to be in the price range I am willing to spend.

Thanks,
Erath

I think it's a little light. The .32 hits about like a modern .22 rimfire. A better choice might be the .36. It's not to big for the small game, yet a much better killer on turkey, and lots less fouling problems.
