Versamax and IC choke LB Magnums
« on: June 08, 2018, 09:20:32 PM »
Season is over but I finally got my hands on some 3 1/2" longbeard xr magnums. I shot a #5 and then a #4. Bore snake ran through bore before each shot. Lasered 40 yds

Looks like a nice, tight group!  How does that compare to what you were using before?

I have tried the 3 inch 1 3/4 oz load in number 5s. It put up right around 160 in the 10 and almost nothing around it. I tried the 3 1/2 inch 2 oz load in 5s as well. That put up 169 in the 10, still with not much outside the 10.

Nice looking patterns

How does this compare to the factory turkey choke ?  I have been curios as there is only 0.05 difference I believe.

I don't think I tried the factory choke with this load. The IC perfomed better with Mag Blends and the high velocity Longbeards so I tried it first with this load, and stuck with it.
