That's insane. Is that the same lot # as the earlier hevi 7 patterns you posted? What did the 20" look like?

Yes it's the same lot as my last year post. The day I shot was a really warm day, no wind, etc.  picture perfect day for shooting.

Thanks for the positive replies guys. I'm really surprised that someone hasn't said that I'm full of it. I actually have a buddy  (bamaturkeyhunter) that knows for a fact that it happened. And I didn't post it to brag about it or anything, just wanna show what can be done with this combo. Thanks again!

Larry, 350-360 was the norm as few years ago.  What have you done to the barrel and what lot number are you shooting?  That is a GREAT pattern.  Whatever you've done, it's working.

The lot # is 301109. And as far as the barrel. I haven't polished it this year but I did a deep clean. But I really think the polishing from last year and year before is just now starting to shine. I don't know why exactly but it seems like the first few shots after I would polish it would be really tight but not an even pattern. But it seems about the 6-7 shot it after polishing, it really starts shooting good. I do clean it with a bore snake and bore cleaner after shooting a few times.

Nice pattern.  I caution you and anyone to not get caught up in the numbers.
