Thanks for the info about them having the same taste issues as turkeys during the R months when they are on crickets. I had made the assumption it was an issue but it is good to have it confirmed.

for those who do and have refined when to get the best eating peacocks when is the best month?
I might put down a years worth of frozen breast meat this year to get the numbers down a bit
surprisingly this week iv confirmed that a 44 cal solid lead is less effective at 950fps than a subx 190gr on peacocks
i think they just push the meat out of the way rather than tearing it
with the subx they are dead before they hit the ground
I shoot for the upper chest when doing dog food and gravity gets reeeeeealy strong for them when im using 300blk but the 44 seems to just injure them
for sure the sub x is a better designed bullet but i wouldnt expect it to do much inside a peacocks body thickness and softness
the lead cowboy bullet of the 44special are pretty boring but at the same speed Id think that they would create a bigger wound cavity but its not what im seeing
half the peacocks shot with the 44 run off and not one needs a follow up with the 300blk
