Well, here's what I get out of my Benelli SBE II. Both loads are Hevi-13 3.5 inch 2 1/4 oz. loads. The gun has a 26 inch barrel, and a Jellyhead .660 choke. The first pattern is the 7's and the second pattern is the 6's. Which one would you choose to be first in line? I'm thinking about going with the 7's in the pipe, followed by 2 rounds of 6's, in the unlikely event that a follow up is needed. What say you?

I like the 7's better. Denser center, and more even throughout.
i agree with chatterbox 100% :z-winnersmiley:
Both are awesome patterns but I'd go with the 7"s........ :icon_thumright:

:agreed:
6s cuz you are probably getting mostly 7s.
Go with the 7s
Better pattern and as long as you have the pattern they will kill at any yardage
I'd be packin' the #6's.
Either one will do the job, my opinion is the 7's
7's first, second and third shot. :you_rock:
same basic pattern, but the 6's will hit harder, go with them and save the 7's because at the rate EM is going next years 7's will pattern in the 150's
Personally I think your circle is bigger on the 6's.
The 7's is the way to go.
7's in the pipe, followed by 2 rounds of 6's
You mean the cirlce I drew? As in bigger then 10 inches?
Shoot them both at 50yds.Theres a good chance if a follow up is needed that it will be at extened ranges.The 7's kill just fine at the 50yd mark so go with what stays tighter longer.
Pick one and the bird is dead if you do your job each pattern is okay for me.
#6's is my choice
Well, the survey seems to be split pretty close to 50/50. I have a strong hankerin' to see how the 7's kill, so I think I'm gonna roll with 7's in the tube, and two 6's for back up, just incase something goes awry.
Either one would get it done!
6's
