Title: Rem 870 Youth 20 - Sumtoy & Fed HW #7 [pic heavy]
Post by: SteelerFan on April 10, 2017, 06:31:54 PM
Finally got to shoot my "low-rent" rebuild 870 Youth 20 with 21" barrel. Rem youth 870 - ShurShot stock - B-Square saddle mount - TruGlo Gobble-Dot

$5 camo paint job...

Sumtoy 562.5 choke w/ 3" 1.5 oz Fed HW #7's.

78 degress, light wind 20 & 40 yds. (laser)

20 yds

(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180113/49e40be808003f745959ae811aa5d52d.jpg)

40 yds

(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180113/02568771495ff6583071e961045f568b.jpg)

**Swabbed barrel with cotton jag after sight-in with field loads & 20 yd. pattern. 1st pattern at 40 was 134? and spotty. I then dry brushed with a copper brush, and then swabbed. EXTREME improvement! 178 as pictured.

Point of aim / point of impact was intentionally a touch high for the range.  Hunting situations, I tend to aim where the feathers meet the wattles... so it's all good.
