Unbelievable #s out of the 835

[Longshanks]

I know a lot of you weren't here for the great Hevi 7 threads of 2011.
There were many, many patterns being posted like that all the time...
330-350 hits on target and people claimed they wouldn't kill reliably...please...
That's actually the time when a lot of the under 40 stuff started going down...
Good to see some monster patterns being posted, Now it kinda makes me chuckle that the LB's came out and everybody now thinks they got a 60 yard gun......
Great pattern LarryHaynes, we don't need a witness to know you shot that at 40. Used to be all day, every day round here..

Yup, I shot allot over 300 and a 333. Back then when everyone was posting what the Hevi 7's would do mine were just good patterns. Allot of folks were trying to hit the 300+ mark with shells right off the shelf and folks were producing some awesome results. I guess those guys are still around they are just like the turkey's around here..sorta quite.

Thats great. My 835 with the .676 Stardot does about the same thing. reflexl

Hey fellas thanks for the replies. Just wanted to say that I do have a witness on here that seen me do it. It was a measured 40 and I shot 2 times and both were in the 350s. Bama turkey hunter seen it happen haha. And I don't know if my gun just likes em or if it's just a great lot # but the lot is 301109 so if you run across any grab em up and keep em. Or I'll take off your hands. Haha. Thanks

Funny, I've got the same gun, Choke, and even the same lot # shells and the best I could get out of mine was 230. That's with a deep cleaned barrel and 70 degree temps

Well I hate to hear that. Something is wrong. Cause you should be getting way more than that. I polished my barrel and cleaned between shots.

My gun has never put up real good  numbers except with longbeard #6's. I don't know why.

Yea I seen your post about the nitros. I thought you should be getting more #s with those. But you still got a turkey killer. Have you tried polishing your barrel?

[ThunderChickenGetter]

No I haven't gotten around to polishing it yet, I've been meaning to do it. All I have done is a deep clean with hoppes 9.

Polishing your barrel could make all the difference I know when we polished LarryHaynes barrel he got a big jump up in numbers we polished his barrel two times and each time his numbers went up

[zelmo1]

  Great numbers, even pattern. You just took away an excuse, lol. Roll Tide. Al Baker

Hevi 7s will do it every time with a pattern like that. I've got a stoeger p350 that loves those shells. Puts up 300+ every time.

Very nice pattern
