A steadier shot would do better, no doubt. Shotgun trigger learning curve and more visible aiming spots on target will help. 100 yards, 3 shot groups.

Thanks to Koger, I'm going to try some 55gr Lee Bator bullets in it. As soon as I make some with the mould he sent. I've also ordered a regular pistol grip stock for it.
I've been looking every day for a turkey to try it out on, but they must have been warned.....

I made a head shot on a squirrel that was inside the deer feeder cage. No damage to the feeder! About 70yards away, resting on my truck window.
The Bee is good for such things. The corn fed fat fancy rat is in the fridge!

leaving the shotgun barrel longer helps with noise a lot...Ive done similar with .45/70 except Ive kept it as an insert and slip it back out again...ejection is via dropping a small metal rod in from muzzle end. lots of fun.

My initial cast bullet test at 40yds with the Lee sized to .225” with Sages aluminum gas checks. 4.5 grs of Unique and CCI SPM primers. I tend to choke on the shotgun style trigger pull, but using Kentucky W&E I was able to rip a tangerine a new one[emoji41]

I’m pleased with the Lee bullet over 3.5 grs of Red Dot with Fiocchi SPP.
The bottom target is at 40 yards- 5 shots in about an inch.
The top target is 40 gr JHP that look like .22 Magnum bullets- I’m glad that they are gone-
The 4” 3 shot group on steel is at 100 yards with the cast load- farther than I’ll use it on game- but interesting. I was aiming at the upper paint spot.
