I'm shooting a 20 gauge 870 compact with 21" barrel and vortex venom sight. Currently have the Trulock heavyweight 7 choke using federal tss #9. Im getting 190 pellets in 10" circle at 40 yards. Should I be looking at another choke? If so what do you suggest?

I'm getting  225 with Apex GT- 20 #8s, Sumtoy .562 10"@ 40, what's the trulock ' s  diameter ? Will be testing Hal's Big 20 hand loads with I.C. .555, can't use #9s here...

NOPE!!!!! go hunting. 190 will be a great hunting pattern  :icon_thumright:

My son and I are both shooting 21" barrel 870s with hand loaded TSS#9.  We are getting around 250 in the 10" and 500 in the 20".  I am shooting a Carlson's 575, and he is shooting a Primos Tightwad.

With that said, 190 pellets in the 10" is good enough if there are no holes in the pattern.
