This was with a customers gun. It just came back from bottom of water hole in duck blind. This is a real world gun not a cleaned and polish gun.

If these patterns continue with the Longbeards, the days of HTL are very very limited.

I know it was a 3.5" #6 ....but not sure about the constriction....I'm bettin' .675
It was a 675 in a 31/2. I have seen the 3 inch go 201 also. This shell has been going big. We have had 4 guns give feed back with this load and all 4 was in the 240 to 245 rang.
the more I see,the more I like.
Once again thats all I needed to see Ill be ordering a .675 from you next week William
wow...thats a killer pattern!!!!!!!!!
man o live thats awesome. I take it its 6's too!
Awesome pattern! :icon_thumright:
DANG.......
has anyone patterned these against a hard surface like a sheet of plywood or sheet metal to see if the resin isn't making up some of the pattern count. I have seen a bunch of pattern post about this load lately and have seen many funny hole in the patterns. I not hating just asking. I have no horse in the race considering I shot a 10ga with fed hw #7 and nitro straight #7's just a question I wanted to ask.
:z-winnersmiley: That's an awesome pattern. I have a 935 with a .690 jellyhead choke and I just bought a box of the XR #5's 3 1/2 at the convention yesterday. I'll be very satisfied with that result.

Highwaygun, there is no way that the resin is making it to the target at 40 yds. With the density of the resin, if it makes it to the target we should all be shooting #12 sized steel at turkeys.
It was just a ? And for the record I could reload a shell will m&m's and get a pattern on paper at 40 yds it might not be tight but you wouldn't want to be shot with it. If you don't believe search YouTube and see some of the crazy thing people have loaded in shotgun shells and how well the stay together and penetrate. It is not far fetched to think the resin could be making some of the odd holes of different shapes and sizes you See in many of the pics.
Winchester longbeards is some scary stuff duck your heads gobblers. :firefighter:
