Not a Maxus, but 26" Browning  Gold IC .675 #6 LB 3.5" only shot I put through it before I sold it for more 20ga chokes.  Didn't count the 20" but in my gun it seemed to be more forgiving than the .665 IC I had in the same gun.

I have shot the IC in my Maxus and it gave great results with Lead and Heavy shot.

Yes.  Out of the 5 tubes shot with my 26" Maxus the IC patterned the worst with Longbeard XR #5 and #6.  Lots of gaps/holes in the pattern.  Too many guys have great luck with IC tubes so this has to be a case where my gun simply didn't like it.  It happens all of the time. 
I also shot a Kicks, HeviShot, Jebs and Carlson's Longbeard XR tubes.  The Carlson Longbeard XR tube performed the best in my gun. 
That said every gun is different so please use this as simply a starting point. 
All of my testing was done at a laser verified 50 yards off a bench.

I should be great, .675 IC did great in my Invector plus barreled guns.... but you really don't know until you try it.  The guys at Indian Creek said it is usually a coin toss between the .665 and .675 to which one those guns like better.
