thugs #5  3 1/2"  2oz  40 yrd  pattern using  Briley 675  from  benelli sbe 1 

arcs  are measured 15" from  point of  aim to approximate a 30" circle


looks  good  to go for me.

Good to see the #5's shooting so well.  I'm going to try the #6 Thugs, but I'm really a #5 guy at heart.

I'm going to run some of the #6 Thugs through a super-tight choke or two, and also through a .040 XFull.....just to see what kind of pattern I can get with them for late season, after the woods turn green and shots are closer.

I'm VERY pleased with the 6s in 3.5"
