I just can't believe the two pellet difference. Must be shot sizes or such. :TooFunny: :TooFunny:

That is one awesome pattern there bud so I am re-thinking this opportunity of having the O/U long shot /close shot option with choke/ shell combos also.

I  will also try shooting a 675 with a 3.5-2-#5 and see what happens.

Hello guys new here on OG wanted to ask if anybody could tell me how the new Colonial Arms 835 chokes stack up to the original Star Dot tube patterns with the Long Beards. Thanks for any help.

I was sitting beside Matt about 30 minutes ago and i still cant believe this. Should have kept my choke Matt haha

Haha it's funny that these Long Beards are shooting so good at 40 yards, that every pattern thread with them someone has to come on and vouch for the person shooting, because nobody really believes them at first.
He shouldn't ought done'nat........ He dead.

Not sure that I would have believed it if I hadn't of been the one shooting it. Believe it or not those are some awesome shells.

The TruGlo SSX .670 has been the 2nd best shooting choke next to the Star Dot that I have found.  It's also a superb cold weather choke that will actually out shot the Star Dot in temp in the mid 40's. 

Great patterns you have there. 

Now somebody needs to see what these loads will do in a Star Dot choke in 60 to 70 degree temps.  I'll bet 300 would be obtained.

All it'll take is you sending a Star Dot to the same address you sent that MadMax to a few months ago! ;D I'll personally make sure they both get a fair comparison!!

I do not know but I did look the lady in the eye the other day and asked if they made the Stardot chokes and she said yes. However they only make the new choke exclusively for the 835 .

I can't wait to find this in the stores!
I want to try this in my 835 with my SSX and IC chokes!! I stocked up last year on the federal turkey thug ammo that was doing so well but this blows it off the targets!
