Took advantage of some decent weather today to pattern an old friend. It was sunny, 54 degrees, 5 mph wind. Took a Winchester 1300 pump I won at a Turkey Federation Banquet about 20 years or more ago. It has the laminated stock with a 21" - 22" barrel. Put a Pure Gold .670 on it.
First shot was with Hevi 13, 3" , #7s. At 40 yards, I got 202 in a 10" circle. POI was a little high and to the right.
Second shot was with Hevi 13, 3", Blend. At 40 yards, I got 151 in a 10" circle. POI was right there.
I'm glad I had a Limb Saver recoil pad on it LOL. Guess I'll put some adjustable fiber optics on it and it should whup a gobbler just fine. Any recommendations that would benefit me using this shotgun is appreciated.
I'm getting around 220 in a 10 and 80% of my pattern in a 20 inch circle at 40 yards with the same set up as you. If you will deep clean and polish your barrell those numbers will go up.

Thanks for the tip Mr. Turk
I use the truglo pro series magnum gobble dot, on one of my 870's and the work very well. They mount right to the vent rib.
