I hope everyone is well. Has any shot this load and if so what type of results did you get? Also, did you find a less / more constricted choke was needed too produce even dense patterns?

Thank you in advance for your help!

I shot it and liked it alot. I shot it out of an Indian Creek .675 in my mossy 835 and Hevi Shots choke with is also a .675, and they shot great thru both, not impressive but great.

My son has killed 2 birds 60+ yards with that shell out of a citori with a .675 Briley tube.  I tried to get him hooked on mag blends but this win shell is all he will shoot. Both times we were in a blind and misjudged  distance on field birds.

Put simply and directly, tight chokes and clean barrels work best with that shell. Chokes with e.d.s of .640 to .655 work best, all things being equal. It's really all about the "internal geometry" of the choke tube.

Thanks,

I tested it side by side with Hevi 6's thru a 870sm with a .660 jellyhead. The Hevi 6's blew it away, but every gun is different.
