I was just wandering what you guys were getting in a 10 in. circle with hevi shot.

Im using a 12 ga 870 with a 21 in. barrel, a hevi shot choke, shooting the 3 in. mag blends and getting around 200 pellets in a 10 in. circle.

What are you guys getting and whats the setup?
I'm getting 200-210 in the 10" with that same combination.   :OGturkeyhead:

I'm turning the same numbers with mag blends out of a beretta urika and PG .670. Same setup turns 250-260 with Hevi 7's. I wouldnt touch a thing on that gun I would just hunt with it. There are people who spend allot of money on custom guns that won't shoot that well.

I just patterned mt 870 SM, 3.5" H-13 #7, with a Jelly Head .665.  I am averaging 260 pellets at a 10" circle at 40 yards.  Been thinking about a SSX .643 just for fun

I have similar results from my Benelli SBE II 26" barrrel, .655 GG choke tube.  The last time I patterned, I got 190 with Hevi Magblend, 276 with Nitro Magblend, and 317 with Hevi #7s, so you can probably expect some significant differences in results depending on which load your gun likes best. 

Good luck and report back what you find.

Sounds like killer to me.
