Title: Rem 870/ Hevi 13 Choke .662
Post by: Longshanks on April 23, 2015, 01:33:26 PM
What kind of results do you guys get out of the Rem 870 and Hevi 13 .662 with lead?
(3" Pb like XX  5,6's, HV  5,6's, 1 7/8  5,6's) I haven't tried the Hevi 13 7's out of this combo yet. It didn't like the Hevi 13 3" 6's.

Replies greatly appreciated..might save the shoulder the punishment.

I can't specifically answer your question as I have an 870 but don't have the choke you asked about.  I however do have that choke for my Beretta and shot some LB 5 and 6 out of it last year.  It put up 170's with 5's and 230's with 6's.

yup, I am shooting some good patterns out of this gun with Win LB 6's but I have a stockpile of the older Win shells.  Hate to not use them.

Just shot 230's-240's with Hevi 13 3/2/7's. Great hunting pattern 20-25 as well. Rem 870 21"/ Hevi 13 Choke. Only Hevi 13 load that patterned well out of this set up. Shot the Win lead loads and the HV 1 3/4 ounce 6's shot the best patterns. 120's in a 10 @ 40
