Longbeards and kick's GT?

[Rcf1968]

Has anyone got any pics of LB's thru these chokes?

I do but don't know how to post them.  I can tell you that one of the wad petals was ripped in half with each shot but it did not appear to affect the pattern.  Shooting the 3" #5's and #6's in a Rem 1187 w/21" barrel and Kick's .650, .655 and .660. I put 160-211 pellets in a 10" circle @ 40 yds.

Did the 3" 5's shoot better in the .660 or .655?

Actually both the 5's and 6's patterned better thru the Kick's .655.   I attributed that to the short barrel.

I got 172 w/ a gt .655 in a 23" 870 sm and 3.5" 5s.

I would have expected that combination to break 200 easily.

^^^ Yea, I would have been tickled w/ 200 also. I'm gonna try a .660 tightwad I picked up to try to fill in some holes I had.

i was getting 260s with the .660 tightwad and number 6s in 3 inch out my win 1300 so should work good for you.

Shot a 183 at 40 with a kicks gt .660 in a 870 28"barrel. 3" #5 long beards. Few holes in the bottom half of the pattern had almost double the shot in the top half.

Toady I shot the 3 inch and 3.5 inch 5 shot long beards and had good results. I shot at forty yards with an 870 supermag 20 inch barrel with kicks .665 choke. The 3 inch got 129 in the ten inch circle and the 3.5 inch got 158. I feel that I would've had better results if I had deep cleaned my barrel before shooting. I hadn't cleaned it since last season.

My brother shot his browning Maxus with a .680 kicks choke and he got 191 with the 3.5 five shot in th 10 inch circle at forty yards. Last year the best he was getting was around 95 with the winchester  double x magnums.
