That is odd. Been reloading and killing gobblers w tss for 9 years. Out of 30-40 birds we have killed, I have only ever found one or two pellets in the bird. Might need to up your velocity, or let them get closer for head shots only.
This one was a longish shot
And at the shot he didn’t drop and flop. We weren’t sure what happened and I was afraid of a miss. We went to go look and found the bird stone dead about 30 yards from where he was standing when my son pulled the trigger
So I’m pretty sure my son being a little off on the shot combined with the distance means the breast absorbed more pellets than normal
