Outstanding. Is that with current production shells? If so, I would say there is no problem.

Nah, I've had these a couple years. First I've shot them.

Lemme know what u guys think.

That's why I shoot the 7's.

Who needs Long Beards with patterns like that.

ive been having a lot of trouble making my 870 shoot. I just ordered some hevi #7s to try but would like to hear if u have any advice. I shoot an 870 sps 23". getting poor patterns with about everything ive tried??

For starters, make sure your barrel nut is super tight, tighten by hand then use vice grips ,with rubber on them so u don't damage the cap, a couple more clicks so it doesn't come loose. Make sure your shooting at a large piece of paper or cardboard. Use some cheap , target shells to shoot to make sure you're on. As far as choke and hunting load goes, there's plenty out there. It's all in how much u want to spend. If I didn't already have a bunch of hevi 7s I'd probably be shooting the Winchester longbeards. My factory HD choke that came with the gun did great with hevi 6s 3inch shells. Browse around this sight, you'll see some great combos and patterns that guys here post up. Good luck
