Slide that point of impact about half a pattern to the right and you'll be in the bizness!

Why bother with a pattern like that.  Get your POA and POI to be the same then go hunt.

Looks like a new world record. Never seen patterns anywhere near that good with Thugs. Those are LB numbers there.

My crystal ball shows a few flopping turkeys in your future.

Nice pattern.

World record was what I was thinking..only seen 3" patterns like that @ 40 yds with Hevi 13 7's.

I couldn't find Longbeards in my local market. I bought box of 3 inch 6 Turkey Thugs and got good patterns too. Didn't count the pellets because too many holes. Like the thugs. Had great patterns st 40 and 40. Wouldn't be surprised I you could stretch to 50. And they were $9.99 a box.
