here is my pattern from my Mossberg 835 with a weaver kaspa 1x4 scope and Winchester long beard xr 6 shot.this is at 40 yards using a Carlson long beard choke with 185 hits. I thought I had full box of the xrs but had 2 more shells left and use them for 40 and 50 yards. super pattern in a 10 in. circle and really blown away with the Winchester xr. I had 152 hits at 50 yds. better be a good shot inside 25 yards or you will miss with that tight pattern.
