 Ok shot a 31/2-2-6 federal fcw lead out of a 670 in the rem 870. It gave 116 in a 10 at 40.  I did not do a 20 but will.   It look like a real good 15 to 18.    Had folks say it work I try to see.    What have yall got.  Looking to make this lead stuff come back.  HV go up so we fall back on the leaf shells.
Tell us just how dead do you want them to be and we will see if we can get that for you.

Best ever pattern with Fed Mag Shok FCW 3.5"-2oz-#6 load was 121 hits in 10" at 40 yards.

I was using a Wright's .650" non-ported choke in my Mossberg 535 with a 20" barrel.    The temperature was around 80 degrees and I had just deep cleaned and polished my barrel.

That Federal FCW load typically puts around 80-90 pellets in the 10" circle at 40 yards at more moderate temps.

Check out my post in the patterning section. I was using the Win HV 3 1/2 2 1/4oz 6's, the two best patterns came from a PG .670 and a Star Dot .676. This was out of a 835.
