Sumtoy .665 Beretta Xtrema 2 and Winchester Long Beards
« on: February 03, 2018, 06:13:04 PM »
Thanks to Sumtoy chokes for quickly getting a choke shipped out here to Oregon, he literally had the choke in the mail hours after I'd ordered it.  It fit perfectly so I took it to the range today to pattern it with two loads: WLB 3" #6 1 3/4 oz and WLB 3.5" #6 2 oz  I shot them out of my Xtrema 2 with a 28" barrel and the Sumtoy .665 choke using a Vortex Venom red dot.  The 3" load and choke produced a pattern that had 183 pellets in a 10" circle at 40 yards. A turkey killing pattern for sure, but we're all looking for perfection or close to it.  I loaded up the 3.5 inch loads and holy cow!  I got 256 pellets (the picture says 245 but just to the right of the tape is a group of 11 that I didn't mark or count) inside a 10" circle at 40 yards.  I'm beyond pleased with the pattern this gun now throws.  Thanks for the great choke and exceptionally fast customer service.

How’d you mount your optic? Is it on the berretta base?

Yes, on the Beretta base.  It sits a bit high on the gun which makes for an uncomfortable cheek weld.  I wish I could have found a mount with a lower height than the OEM Beretta one.

I’ve found another mount option that’s lower,it’ll take a little bit off altering but it’s also only $6.99

I didn’t experiment much but my best shot with the A391 was with the jelly head .660 gen 1 Winchester long beard 3.5 #6 1 7/8, I think, 264-10” your pattern is certainly smoking!
