Im using a 12 gauge 870 thats got a 21 inch barrel on it. I'm using the 3 inch hevi-13 mag blends and im getting around 200 pellets in a 10 inch circle at 40 yards.
What choke are you using, Jake?? :OGturkeyhead:

Jake#5

That was with the .662 Hevi 13 choke.
I've just recently got a benelli M2 and just got a .650 Sumtoy choke for it.

3" 870 Shell Shucker

QuoteShot the 3" hevi-13 2.oz #6's and only got 188 in a 10"

Only 188?  That's a good pattern for the 3" #6's.

I took the old 1187 to the shooting range today and tried some Magnum Blend 3" ammo in it at 40 yards.  It has a 21" barrel and the temperature was about 60 degrees.  Since I'm out of TSS and can't get any before our season begins, I guess I"ll be hunting with this setup.  It averaged about 210 in a 10" circle with an IC 665. I never shot Magnum Blend in a 3" gun before so this should be about average.  What do you all think and has anyone else tried these in a Remington? They were $ 17.99 a box.

What numbers are you getting?   

thanks brian



Brian, I noticed in your post that you were shooting an IC .665 tube.  Have you tried the Hevi-13 .662 choke with that gun??

NO I HAVE NOT BUT LIKE TO !

Brian I have one EM sent me. I will mail it to you to shoot.

I've shot a HEVI choke .662 out of my 11-87 20in barrel 3in Mag-Blend and got around 200 in 10in circle at 40yds. Same choke/shell in 870 with 26in barrell and got around 225-230. Guess the longer barrel may make a difference.
