 I ordered three boxes of 20ga #7s. shot a couple through my Weatherby Sa459
with a Carlson .565 turkey choke and a Burris Fast Fire that was spot on.
Pattern with my combo was terrible...….might be different with another setup but I doubt it.
Save your money, I was far from impressed.

I have a ton of 20 gauges and lots of chokes.I bet I can get it to shoot from a few setups.

I like to test and tinker,money isn't really an issue,however I would like to see if I can get this to shoot from 2 of my 20 gauges.

I believe I can,I already ordered 3 boxes.I am tempted to order 5 more,4 20 gauges and 1 12 gauge box and then 5 for a buddy.I am just waiting to hear from him.He wants them for his two boys to shoot.

I tried it Sunday through my 20 gauge SKB 7300 with a Briley custom .558. They shot similar to Fed #7 heavyweighjts. That is to say that they will be used this year, lol. No load( TSS, lead, or any other load) shoots as well through this combo. I was pleased with the pattern. I will see if they perform well in a coulple weeks.

It patterned fine.It hit high with my fiber optic sights maxed out,I have tried other ammo and these sights hit on, in the one gun I have tried so far.I posted the pattern in the tc 20 gauge thread.I can see it doing very well in other guns and choke combo's.I am not sure which gun I will shoot the 20 gauge stuff from yet.I will be testing the 12 gauge stuff when my single shot arrives.

I may try and test it in my tc 20 scoped when I go to test the 12 gauge.

Other than it hitting high, how do you think it patterned ....specifically compared to the old 20 gauge Federal Heavyweights?  The pattern of the old Federal stuff out of an 1187 with a Sumtoy .562-5 was really good. It had a great all around even hunting pattern at 40 yards.

I never shot the Fed heavyweight #7's as 7's were not legal shot until two years back and I never could find them in 3",just 2 3/4" and I didn't bother. I think they patterned fine and would have no problem dropping a tom at 40 yards.I believe that they would be a great shell,I just will not have time until after season to test with different guns and chokes as I already have all mine setup for other combo's. I  may try it with my tc when I take my 12 gauge to pattern and dial in,when it arrives later this week.

My plan is to eventually set one of my 20 gauges up to shoot this shell and my 12 gauge single shot if all goes as planned. It may be the Tc but I really am not sure yet.
