Anybody shot the 3rd degree out of there 20 gauge with a good pattern. Post some pics if so
Saw a pretty decent pattern the other day but it was on a Facebook page. Maybe Turkey Callers of America or Turkey shot gunners corner.....Looked pretty even and nice density.
A buddy of mine rigged up the exact same gun for his daughter that I did mine. Same choke too. He got very good patterns with it. I did not.
This is from last year. 1187 26" barrel, Sumtoy 562-5, 3" 3rd Degree shells at 31 yds.

Your pic says triple beards. That's not the same as third degree. Doesn't hevishot make the triple beards?
I think they like any other blend that is commercial loaded. One may have more of this and other more of that. I have not seen any of the blend shells shoot consistent from shell to shell.

Agree the only blend load that seems to pattern well for me is the 3.5" Hevi-blend out of my Benelli SBE. It show real well. Bottom line however in my Benelli almost any load I shot would have destroyed a turkey at 50 yards. Lugging that canon around is why I now shoot a 20 gauge and shoot your chokes and number 7 Heavyweight. Pretty awesome set up.
Well i got some third degree's to see how they shoot. With a different choke i believe they will shoot pretty good. I shot at 25 and 35 yards
1st pic was 25 yards 2nd pic is 35 yards
I wouldn't hunt with that load, too many holes in the pattern at 35 yards.
