Buy a thermometer to be sure it's 175 degrees in the thickest part of the thigh. Oven temperatures vary a lot and a thermometer is the only accurate way to be sure it is cooked correctly.

Kimmer is right.
Another thing I always do so is:
Put another oven rack under the one you put the turkey and place on it a large rectangular baking pan at least half of water. I also add some of the seasonings used for the turkey in the water, so the steam wont steal any from what I'm cooking. The steam that the water generates will make your turkey comes out juicy and moist, not dry as usual.

20 minutes per pound. If you stuff it - 30 minutes per pound. So you are looking at 3 1/2 - 4 hours at 350 degrees. Make sure it is complete thawed before cooking.
