Been watching the weather and finished up my shot trap this week so I loaded up today to testing my trap (worked GREAT) and test a few loads and chokes....
Apex #9/ .570 Rob Roberts (best performance of all choke/load combos)

And I weighed my shot I caught from my trap. Caught roughly 5 oz of 6.25 oz of #9’s I shot
-
Nice!! Thanks for sharing. Looks like you’re ready!!
-
some fine looking patterns there
I really like the 570 RR and the Federal 8x10's
-
Man, I'd take any of those patterns! All nice and even...
-
All very nice patterns but those Apex 9’s RR .570 look mean.
-
All will kill, pick what you like and roll with it.

Went out today to check my POI at 20 yards..

^^^^^youch. Is tss hard enough that making a trap for them to collect makes them reusable?
-
Nice patterns buddy and agreed that .570 and Apex is sweet.
-
Looks like a headless bird at 20 yards!
