172 in 10" @ 40. I think that'll kill him.

GREAT pattern!!!  I Like what I'm seeing out of this shell.  It is a GREAT 40 yard load ....I still personally wouldn't push past 40.

Nor should any ethical hunter......an awesome pattern for lead and looks to be a great substitute for crazy expensive HTL

Good deal!  #5 shot to boot!  I could never get #6 lead to fly that good.

Hooks, did you notice any of the wad petals ripped off by the Kick's choke during your patterning session??  I shot the 3 inch #6's yesterday thru my 21" Rem 1187 with a Kick's .655 and one of the 3 wad petals was ripped off halfway.  But it did not seem to affect the pattern.  I got 211 pellets in a 10 inch circle @ 40 yards. :OGturkeyhead:

that does not sound too safe?? For the choke or the shooter.
Leave a chunk of that petal in the choke or barrel and oh boy???
