Finally got to shoot my "low-rent" rebuild 870 Youth 20 with 21" barrel. Rem youth 870 - ShurShot stock - B-Square saddle mount - TruGlo Gobble-Dot

$5 camo paint job...



Sumtoy 562.5 choke w/ 3" 1.5 oz Fed HW #7's.

78 degress, light wind 20 & 40 yds. (laser)

20 yds



40 yds



**Swabbed barrel with cotton jag after sight-in with field loads & 20 yd. pattern. 1st pattern at 40 was 134? and spotty. I then dry brushed with a copper brush, and then swabbed. EXTREME improvement! 178 as pictured.

Point of aim / point of impact was intentionally a touch high for the range.  Hunting situations, I tend to aim where the feathers meet the wattles... so it's all good.

Good job man.  Having those magic lot numbers helps.  Ha ha ha.  :drool:

The addiction will cost you time and money and alienate those close to you. I can give you the names of a dozen addicts — myself included — whose wives begin to get their hackles up a week before turkey season starts and stay mad until a week after it closes.
