Title: Even more Yildiz testing
Post by: Jordan121787 on January 12, 2023, 07:29:00 PM
The weather has been warm and I've been tinkering. I finally found something that I'm going to use this season. I got the Apex Ol'Tom 8/10 blend and it's perfect for what I'm looking for.

Apex Ol'Tom blend 8/10s
Sumtoy .562

Here is some straight 9s to compare

I also tested some Fiocchi Golden Turkey TSS and it did pretty well! The .580  will be tested tomorrow with the ol tom load

Very nice patterns! How is the barrel regulation on the yildez?

Not bad at all. I run a red dot, but at 20yards if I am at the waddles the top barrel will take its head off. At 40 yards I'm dead on with the bottom if I am at the head.
