Nice.  I don't see a hole to walk through.

I have an M2 on the way along with a Sumtoy 562. Hopefully that choke won't be crazy tight.

what does the 20 yd look like?  I just received a 555 to try, but I think the 20 yd and in will be tighter than I want so I may play with something around 570 575.

1 3/4 oz 20 ga load?

I didn’t get a chance to shoot it at 20 yards.  It started raining and I still had a couple of red dots to check zero.  Had to put it in high gear.  Past experience with TSS it won’t be super tight.  It’s the most forgiving up close load I’ve ever shot.

Yeah I hand loaded the 1.75 oz. load.

Wonder what she looks like running the 1 5/8 Big 20 XL Load. I have .570 Rob Roberts that is open @200 in the 10 at 40, it’s an open pattern and very forgiving. I need to load some of the 1 3/4 loads and see what they do through it.

I run 1 5/8th oz hand loads, didn't realize there was a load that heavy.  I just got a .555 IC but that looks impressive!

I think my current choke is 580ish and works great, most of my birds are killed under 30yds so the .555 may be too tight!

Ordered the same choke for mine after seeing this. I did have the .562 but felt it was to tight for me personally
