12 ga Benelli M2 26” Barrel-Sumtoy .650-3” Hevi 13 #7’s

[RossAnderson]

Finally got some good weather for a day to try out the Sumtoy choke and some hevi-13 #7's. Seen this combo from a member on here (Cut N Run). Mine didn't turn out as good as his but I'm still impressed with it. 305 hits in a 10" circle.

Im shooting the same choke/shell combo in my SBE2 and I did notice that my gun likes to be dirty.  My pattern tightened up a good deal after a couple shots sighting in my red dot.

I'm glad you mentioned that. That was with a clean barrel.

Ive read a couple threads on here, where people talk about deep cleaning the barrel.  I deep cleaned it right out of the box, ran i cant even tell you how many dry patches, alcohol etc down the barrel, mounted the sights and hit the range.  The first couple were ehhh.  At about shot 3 or four was when i was impressed.  Now i just run a couple patches through it when i get home from shooting and call it good.

Mine definitely shoots better dirty.  Good looking pattern you've got going.  Dead bird all day.

I've shot other lot numbers and they didn't perform quite as well as the ones I posted.  They'll all kill birds though.

Good luck this year.

That looks like a real nice pattern, even and dense. I predict many  turkey dinners in your future.
