Title: 870 SM-.655 CompNChoke-3" LB #6 vs Win Double X #6. AMAZING
Post by: Spurs on April 07, 2016, 12:19:29 PM
This is my dads gun and he recently shot 73 @40 with the old 3.5" Win Supreme #5 that he has been using for years!!!!  I decided to give it a shot to get him where he needed to be. 

Let's just say he has a new box of LB in his vest now.

Also, I was amazed at the 20 yard patterns.  The LB was a little more dense in the center, but the overall spread of the pelts was almost identical...those supremes just FELL APART past 20.

That'll work!  I think I had 83 in the 10" with some old Supremes in the #4 shot which was pretty good.  Switched to the Long Beards and it went up dramatically with much better coverage.  Long Beards for me now.
