Got my stardot in
« on: September 02, 2011, 09:20:38 AM »
After a long search and lots of help from OG members I finally own a Stardot for my 835. Can't wait to go run some Hevi 13's thru it. I have 3 #7 3.5" 2.25oz left and a couple 6's. Might try and pick up a box of the magnum blend as well. It will be at least a week before I can get home with enough time to shoot it.

Glad you finally got it in.  I got 176 hits at 40 yards in 10" with the mag blends out of my new 835 and my Star Dot.  Very happy with it.  Here is a picture of the pattern:

Good luck! Let us know how it performs.

I get wicked nasty patterns shooting the 7's in my 835/stardot combo, but haven't shot the 6's yet. Keep us posted with your results.

Nothing wrong with that pattern.
