I have an sp-10 that always has shot to the left 6" at 40 yards-is this something that can be corrected by a gunsmith? As is I allow for it but would rather correct it if possible-I have heard of such services to center patterns but have no knowledge of it.Can it be done? If so any recommendations?

numerous chokes-the pattern master centered "better" but held a poor pattern so it wasnt an option.

Play with the magazine cap, tighten it a hard as you can, shoot it then back it off a few clicks and see if it changes. This has worked for me in the past.

You can also try an adjustable rear sight.

I got a sp 10 that shoots 3 inches to the left - it is due primarily to a slightly crooked shotgun rib - look at your and see if it is the case also - sometimes a misaligned {off center}factory choke installation will throw your shot off, I have seen some barrels that threw a foot to the side because of this   

If it were me and you gun shoots good and you don't want to mess with the barrel , I would see about adjustable sights or if you like the beads the mid bead can be re installed to the side a slight tad and this could counter it
