What i have found out about them is they are inconsistent shell out of my gun. repeatedly.

One a little high
One a little right
One a little high
One a little low.

They just arent ....I dunno. Great shells though.

I think my son will use these in my old armi sanmarco fixed chokes.got about 165. Going to try some in new nwtf bps with improved cylinder choke. Still waiting on nitros to try with rhino 690.with the money spent on shells and choke maybe a12 g moss. Might have been better. On this site they put up big nos. But patterns look tight.

My bps shot them good 244 in 10 @ 40 with sumtoy .685 but like i read earlier they are inconsistent poi. Or were with the bps. Ill be posting patterns with the h&r same choke and load next week sometime. Not so bad that i wouldnt hunt with them but they never hit the same on paper.

No its non ported and the wad looks like any other really. I sold that gun because i wanted a shorter barrel and a little less weight. It had a 30 in. Barrel. About 12 lbs. Now ive got a h&r and the browning choke threads are the same so i kept the choke.
