Season starts next weekend and my single 20 is still at the gunsmiths so I figured I better check my shotgun and Red Dot.
Overcast and windy at the outdoor range. Using a pistol pit 37 measured yards was the longest I could shoot.
Both Longbeard and Fed HW did about the same. I did bring the pattern up a little after I took the pictures.
Not too bad for lead and I think I can kill a turkey. I like to call them close anyway!

That will git r done. I bet that's a .575 choke rather than a .375 if it's a 20 gauge...

Exactly, Thanks! Yes 575, there was a disconnect between eyes,brain and pen!
That is what I get for trying to use 74 year old eyes and brain!

All been there and done that.  Nice patterns.

The addiction will cost you time and money and alienate those close to you. I can give you the names of a dozen addicts — myself included — whose wives begin to get their hackles up a week before turkey season starts and stay mad until a week after it closes.

Mann I miss them fed 7's! Reasonably priced with some serious knock down power.
