HWT's if it were me. Same numbers, but heavier pellets flying faster!
Nice even pattern too if you hold it on his waddles he is going to have a BAD HEADACHE!!!

I would never base my decision on one shot with each shell. But if those results are consistent, I would shoot the HWs hands down. HW 7s will outpenetrate every pellet in the MBs, including the 5s.

24 inch barrel. Those were the best patterns. Worst pattern was 119 with HW 7's. After a few shots i was a bit jerky on the trigger.

Both are killers. Are you going try a different choke? Maybe the gun likes a little more open choke and might improve. If not, you're good to go anyway.
