If you have time try the Indian Creek .665 with the LB XR #6 in your Vinci!!!! Thinking you'd like it!!!

Vinci1964

Maybe not this year but I would like to try one. I see good things from Indian Creek. Have you tried #4s through an Indian Creek?

Popapi

Only the 5s and they were descent! May try some 4s and just see!!!

Ive been using the 3" LB with the carlson LB choke on my Vinci this year. Ive shot it at 25 yards a couple times and havent been able to count the pellet holes. Theres a few spread out bbs and a bullet hole right in the middle about 1.5" diameter. It shot about 6-8" high at 25 so i bought a red dot to take out the guess work.

I bought a Red dot too because mine was shooting high.  Some guns do. Vinci is a waterfowl gun and they don't want the head covering the target.
