New choke on my old Winchester 1200: Longbeard XR, 12 Ga, 3 Inch, 50 ,40, 20 Yards, Sumtoy .665

Please let me know what you see at each range. Thank you

Good lead killing pattern. I've got a 665 sumtoy in my versamax and mine patterns similar with 6 shot but I keep my shots under 40.
I'd Rather be on Hazel Creek

I misjudged an Osceola that I thought was about 40 and ended up being 50 and it turned out okay but certainly not ideal. For some reason the old 1 7/8 lbs 6s pattern better than the 1 3/4 in my gun.

Thank you for the reply.  Yes, 40 and under will be my plan.

More pellets probably the reason ?

There's a few more in the 1 7/8 but not many. Those are discontinued so I wouldn't hesitate to shoot the 1 3/4 #6 load.
