I've got one. Haven't been out since. 12ga Hevishot 3.5inch #5 at 30 yards. Boom. Andrew: you can take two on the East side and one on the West side of the state.
there are some counties in e-wa you can only kill 1 bird...kittitas being 1 of them. i don't know the others off hand.
Josh is absolutely correct. What I should have said was read and understand the regulations carefully for the area you plan to hunt.
Where do you go out by Chattaroy? Private land? I've been scouting around the eastern side looking for some turkey an a lot of people suggested that the turkey in the east are few and far between, but then others say they are successful.
As far as turkey loads, I knew guys that shot turkey with 2 3/4 number 8's. But then again I shot my two toms last season, with 10 gauge 3.5, number 5 winchester turkey loads. So it's really up to you, I would suggest a good turkey load is better though, if you buy a box it will last a few seasons anyways so the price is really spread out over a few seasons.
