Winchester 1300, LB#5s, Hevishot choke
« on: August 02, 2017, 11:32:40 AM »
Per the recommendation of Clark I picked up a Hevishot choke  to run LB #5s in my 22" Winchester 1300. The other day I sighted it in got a feel for the patterns. Temps were in the 90s with pretty high humidity (always high in Arkansas). The barrel was dirty from sighting in ~8 rounds and shots were at 40yds and counts are in a 10" circle centered on higest density.

Those numbers look very good and apparently, your gun likes to be a little dirty.

Thanks,
