I am a new member to this site just my 2 cents. 3 years ago my brother bought every box of Winchester Extended Range 3" #6 shot for $4 a box after season markdown at one of our Wal-Marts, only 11 boxes. He gave me a couple of boxes and last season I used them to shoot 2 of the biggest gobblers I have ever harvested.  Decided to use my Mossberg 500 last year instead of my Super The first was at 22 yards and the other 15 yards.X2 3.5 inch gun go figure. This year I am using my 835 and some $11.97 3.5" Winchester Supreme HV #5 or #6. Any body else out there shoot an 835 with these shells? What choke and what kind of numbers at 40 yards? Great site good luck to every one this season.

My 835 with the StarDot .676" choke will go 140-150 in the 10" circle at 40yds with the 3.5" HV #6's, 5's weren't great, 115 I think.

I have been getting 135-140 with my 835 Carlson .675 with Win Sup HV 3.5 #6s and a few less with #5s. I am more than satisfied as I have no doubts as either load will get the job done out to 50 yards if need be. Thanks TF for the input
