What will pattern better

[Bama turkey hunter]

What nitro load will pattern better out of a remington 870 ,26 in barrel , rhino 660 . 2 7/16 oz load , or 2 1/4 oz load of 4,5,7 duplex.

It's hard to say, because it really depends on the gun.  My best guess would that the 2 7/16 oz load would be better.  If you call Nitro on Mon they will probably be able to tell you.

A sportings goods store down the road has them , wondering which ones to get

[kwild835]

I would think that there is a chance the 2 7/16oz load would blow the pattern in that tight of a choke.  I shot the same load through a Browning Gold with a .670 PG and the pattern was blown.

with 660 I would go with the 21/4 seems the 2 7/16 may be to much for it

Ya'll are correct.  I just got this off of the Nitro web-site... "If Shooting A .660 Extended Rhino Choke
or a Primos Jelly Head .660 Choke H510H #4x5x7 or #2x5x7 Hevishot® 230-270 pellets"

H510H is their 2 1/4 oz load

There ya go Man.

choke and others can take a .670.  The loads that they like
are not consistent from gun to gun, so you may have to test
a variety of loads to find the right one for your gun.

Thanks for the info

I think the smaller load will work with the smaller choke
