A perfect day for some range time here in TN!!  Wind was blowing L to R about 10MPH a nice 70*F.
I've decided this is the choke and shell I'll be using this year just not sure if I should shoot the 5s or 6s.  I was thinking of chambering the 6s and having the 5s in the tube for a possible follow up. 
What do you guys think??
The brown cardboard target I shot the other day it was around 55* and somewhat humid.  I guessing it too would have been close to 200 otherwise.

Thanks Drum not quite up to your numbers but close.  I had it narrowed down to the Stoeger and the Weatherby and I thought the 18.5 in barrel would be too short.  You've got a nice set up.

Sounds like a good plan. I don't think you can go wrong with either one.

You actually have a bit better numbers with the 5's than I do.  Your patterns are GREAT...go hunting and have a safe season!!!  :icon_thumright: :icon_thumright: :icon_thumright:
