Dead turkey! That being said it's a little sparce and splotchy on the left side, but it does look like the center of the pattern is a bit right. I know it's a small piece of paper, but did you shoot with a larger backing surface to see the full extent of the pattern? For what it's worth I started with a Carlson's LongBeard XR choke out of my new browning BPS and while it threw great numbers on paper, it wasn't too sporty for the woods. A lot of pellet clumps with a good number of gaps, but the best "paper" numbers in a 10" I tested. Just didn't suit what I was looking for.

I posted the worst of the 2 shots fired just to get objective opinions. I knew I pulled a little to the right when I fired. I had been shooting alot of rounds with different load combinations, with a bad shoulder. This pic is the first one I fired with the LB 6's and I believe was held as true as I can achieve. Also, check out what was moving around yesterday afternoon in SE GA. Don't have a youth hunter to take anymore or he would be a dead bird.

127 in 9" 55 in kill zone. More uniformed pattern.
