I shoot a 870 with a 26 in barrel with a rhino 660 . I'm shooting nitros 3 1/2 in 2 1/4 oz 4x5x7 .load h510h my pattern looks all blotched up . Do y'all think I need a more open choke to even my pattern out . Like a 665 or a 670 .
I'm not gonna tell you it would be the ticket but I shoot the the same load out of a jelly head 665 and have no complaints.
You may be a bit over-choked with those #4 and #5 pellets trying to squeeze thru there. Moving to a bit more open tube like Spring Fever mentioned should work out well.
Spring fever what kind of numbers are you getting is your pattern even
Anyone else shoot this combo
I would try the jelly head ol buddy
I think your right ol buddy :icon_thumright:
I shoot that out of my (23") 870 and its great, not sure if thats due to my barrel being 3" shorter than yours.
Patchy patterns are often a sign of being over choked. I would move to a .665 or .670.
Yep, I would try a .665 as well.
I think I'll try a 665 and see how it does
