I shot my gun a few weeks ago when it was 27 degrees so today it was 50 degrees with a light cross wind so I wanted to give it a try again. I shot twice at 40yds with a range finder, SBEII 24" barrel Burris speedbead .665 Gobbler Gun choke Hevi 7's 235 in a 10" circle and 242  in a 10" circle, so then I went back to 60yds and shot same combo and had 58 in a 10" circle and 150 in a 20" circle, the patterens where very even with little to no voids, and the shells are this years shell lot #'s.

Opps those 60 yard #'s where magblends the 7's where 70 in a 10" and 193 in a 20" so I'll be using 7's for sure!


Needless to say I am very happy with the results and looking forward to SD this Friday!

I'd say you're ready to go. Great sounding patterns.

Thanks,

Go get a good Merriam or 4.  I'll be anxiously awaiting your results.  Weather looks like it is going to be great.

Sounds good! I'm waiting for two boxes of Hevi 13 in #7 to come to my doorstep for patterning. Going to compare to my Nitro H517T's and Magnum Blends.

If I had a dollar for every gobbler I thought I fooled I'd be well off!
