I have the same gun but using the Kick's and haven't had results anywhere near as good as that. I may try picking up a jellyhead this week and giving it a good run.

Nice patterns.

I have the same gun/barrel and tried the JH but didn't get near those numbers with 3.5" Hevi 7s. My Undertaker .675 out patterned the JH too. You may want to take a look at those as well.
Congrats on some great patterns!
