Title: Nitro #6's 3 inch
Post by: b wilt on March 27, 2022, 01:57:04 PM
I know there's not much love for the old Remington Nitro's but I think this works out of my SuperMag to 40 yards with a Truglo front bead and factory mid bead? I've tested several loads since early February including 3 1/2's.

I have a couple guns that the Nitro's shoot really well from.
They shot really good out of my Girsan MC312 Gobbler with a Tightwad choke and from a 20g M3020 that shoots Nitro #5 out of Tightwad that I'm using this year. Pattern fills an 8 1/2 x 11" piece of printer paper @ 30.

My Benelli Nova 20 gauge shoots the #5 Nitro Mags 35-40 yards better than any shell I've tried, no complaints here.  The Winchester Double X #5 is a close second, the Winchester Long Beard XR #5 was a disappointment.
