Shot some 3.5" 2oz #5s in my Moss. 935 this morning to solve a curiosity.

Grand Slams- 78
Flite Controls- 92



Both were shot through a .690 JellyHead at 40 yds. Barrel does need to be deep cleaned but that'll have to wait till seasons over. May also try another choke also. Open to suggestions on improving the pattern.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

What choke are you using, and has your barrel been polished?

SCDieselDawg

Not polished. But that's gonna be on the to do list during the offseason.  Choke is a .690 JellyHead. May try something tighter.

Try a stardot, should get ya 120-130's, with 5's .

All six 835's and 2 935's  we used to shoot did at least this.  Some did above 110's with the 4's.

Grand Slams that is.  3 1/2"

I swapped the JH out for a .670 Kicks GT. if I remember correctly it put up mid 140s with the Grand Slam 5s and just this week 115 with Win. Double X #4s.

In the 835 I picked up last month I'm running a SSX that put up 140s with Win. Double X HV 5s and 6s

I have both of these types of shells an can get both of them to work great for me,you just have to try several different chokes
it's not the harvest,it's the chase

I'm done fooling with the FCWs as well as HTL. Now that both my Mossys are shooting either Winch. Or non FCW Federals I'm satisfied.
