Title: Remington 870 21 inch barrel .665 Indian Creek Apex TSS #9
Post by: Tom007 on January 15, 2023, 06:54:21 AM: Got out to pattern my 870 (21 inch barrel 12 gauge) with Apex 3 inch #9’s. It has an Indian Creek .665 choke which Apex recommended. I can see why. I am not a pellet counter, but this looks ok to me. I now pattern all my guns at 35 yards, I like to take my shots 35 on in, this is my comfort zone….be well

Hope to pattern soon Gun looks brown camo in pictures I took with IPod but it is MO breakup I think. The picture below is actual color.

Great gun, yes that looks like Mossy Oak breakup camo. Post pattern picks if you can. Good luck!
