Sbe2 26" barrel with a 655 rob Roberts. The 3.5s went 258

Cool.... can't wait to see the patterns!!!  It will be interesting to see the difference in the 3" vs the 3.5" from the same gun!!!  :icon_thumright:


Not even sure what to say hahah seemed to get even better when I shot it not in the lead sled

Thanks Man!!!  When I saw that gun I HAD to have it!!!  It doubles as a home defense gun and a turkey gun.  I personally think Weatherby hit a home run with it & I'm surprised I don't see more guys using the PA-459?  They make it in 20ga. too.

I saw where you had posted something about 20ga models a few days ago or something like that,anyway I am now on the hunt for one in 20ga.
Are they the same model # ???? just in different gauges???

Yes...the 20ga. only comes in flat black ...I believe.  Click on the "specs" tab.

I guess most guys don't consider it fer rooster hunting is its a 3" gun. To me, 3.5" is overkill, my shoulder included. Love the way it looks and ghost ring sights to boot!  :camohat:

Those are some beautiful even patterns. My guns are punching bullets hole with a corona. Lethal but nearly to tight. Good job.
