Don't have any pattern pics right offhand, so you'll just have to trust me  ;D. I shoot a Benelli Supernova, 28 inch barrel with a .665 Indian Creek choke with hevi shot 3-2-6s. For me, this combo puts just over 240 hits in a ten inch circle at 40 yards. Thats with a clean barrel. Dirty barrel averages around 215 hits. Hope that helps.

Currently, I shoot a Benelli SBE with 24", 26" and 28" barrels, a Nova with the same length barrels and a Vinci with a 28" barrel. I've been shooting Benelli shotguns since 1991.

Options are many and varied but the best I've found for the "Mobil" choked barrels of the SBE and the Nova are, SSX, Wright's #3 and the Hevi-13 turkey chokes. Those 3 chokes have quite different internal geometry and exit diameters but all work exceptionally well.

I hope that helps.

Thanks,
Clark

3 inch 6 should be around 200. 7 should be 230. 

31/2 I not have numbers on 6 but 7's should be 280 and up.

That gun like 650 or around 670
