Shot my other 870 earlier today. It wasn't as good as I wanted but it will definetly work seeing that I'm newly converted from PB to the Hevi stuff. I wonder if the 3" #6 would be better? This pattern is a 40yd in a 10" circle

I would not be surprised if the 3 inch 2 ounce Hevi 6's didn't pattern as good or better than the 3.5 inch 2 1/4 oz load. I can't open your photo. What is your setup?

175 is right on the money for 3.5". polish the barrel and she'll do over 200 easy. 3" will get maybe 160"s Personally I wouldn't change a thing. Also keep in mind H-13 fluctuates considerable between lot#'s as far as pattern number's go.
