Finally got to do some patterning on the new 11-87 SM. I shoot only Hevi, 3in, 2oz, #7. First shot was the factory stock wingmaster HD turkey – 148 hits.
2nd shot was JH .660 – 216 hits. I shot the wingmaster first, didn't clean the barrel before I took jellyhead shot. I'm pretty happy with 216 from JH... probably could have gotten a little more if I cleaned the barrel before shot. Looks like a nice uniform pattern for hunting gobblers.

The pattern you got from the Jelly Head is awesome. If you would deep clean your barrel you would get higher numbers. :icon_thumright:
Looks great. You're in business.
Your J.H. pattern is really nice and even, perfect hunting pattern, would expect a little better out of a clean barrel, but that is still a nice pattern.
JH .660 and Rem...a match made in heaven.
