Alrighty fellas I posted not long ago with some pics of a super hot pattern with LB #5s out of a Browning BPS. I got out today and wanted to just convince myself one more time that the pattern wasn't the greatest for a hunting situation before I went the new choke route and this is what I ended up with. 8" circle and the pattern appears to be quite a bit more even for what it's worth from what I saw out of a just off the rack barrel. 1 picture 134 in a 8" and the other is 126 in a 8 and I circled it a little low as far as pattern center goes. Let me know your opinions fellas!
Second pic, couldn't figure out how to attach two....
It's a bit spotty for my taste. I look for an even distribution of pellets in the circle. Don't matter if it's 110 or 190 in a circle. I don't like big gaps in the pattern.

I'd try the LB #6s or different choke...
Agreed, I'd work on some other load and choke options
I agree with the above posts.
Just too spotty for my taste.
I patterned some LB 5's this morning at 40 yards and my group was more even and spread out. I do not focus on how many pellets are in an 8 or ten inch circle but focus more on how even the pattern spreads. I am shooting a 25 year old Browning BPS with a kicks .655 choke. All my patterns are even with a few deviations or small holes on occasion. Can you tell me the range in which you patterned your shotgun. I shoot LB #4 for field and usually LB 6 for woods. I will be using the LB #5 for the first time this year.
