The bottom pic is looking very nice! Was that the HW 3" ?

Yes the bottom picture is the 3" HW. I was really pleased with the trulock choke in this gun.

glad you posted. I have the exact same gun. I tried everything I could screw in it but nothing compared to the TruLok. I have been curious about the #6's and getting to see that pattern is nice.  thank you

That's kind of what i figured it would do at 40 yard. I just shot at 30 because the person using it will most likely never shoot beyond that. I'm going to run some handload tss #9 through it here in a couple weeks.

I set that exact gun up for my grandson with a Trulock Fed HW Choke and run Federal HW #7 1 1/2 ounce.  At 40 I'm getting between 180 -190 in a 10" at 40 yards.    More than pleased!
