Winchester 1300 youth 22" barrel . Carlson's un-ported .575 and TSS .555. And Hevishot choke.
40 yards. Clean barrel.
Federal TSS 9's from the Cabelas /Bass pro sale last year. 15 bucks a box.
.575 Carlson's  =  222 in the 10" + 216 from the 10" to 20" so 438. 41% of load in 10".
Federal HW 7's 3" shell. Dreaded 5V lot.
.555 Carlson's  =  112 in the 10" + 116 from the 10" to 20" so 228.  34% of load in 10". Dreaded 5V lot
Winchester Longbeard 5's.
Hevi-shot choke =  82 in the 10" +  78  from the 10" to 20" so 160.  39% of load in 10".
This was the first time I have patterned this gun . First time ever with Longbeard 20 gauge shells. Had to have something to do. Yes 6's are dang near impossible to find.
Could just hunt it with TSS 9's as that type of pattern is what I always seem to get with other guns.
One reason I say that TSS saves me money. One and done.
As far as the HW 7's and the longbeards 5's . Do you all think that the other two chokes here will do better?
