i have not had as good of patterns with the 1 5/8oz as i do with 2 1/4oz. but still get better patterns than with lead.
like Gobble i have seen some fantastic patterns posted on here from that load
Good things come to those who wait

I patterned my dads Mossy 500 with trulock .670 and had good consistent killing patterns beyond 40 yards

The 1 5/8 ounce shells will break 100.
The 1 3/4 ounce shells will break 150.

They are reasonably priced shells that will definitely beat the patterns you have been getting. I think you will be happy with them as long as you are not shooting for 300 plus hits. Good Luck!

honestly im just looking to get an even 100 pellets at 40 yards!
the rem nitro loads and the win HV no6's arent doing that!
my shotgun only fits 2 4/4 and 3''
would these do?

they make 2oz load in 3" shells, thats all my gun can take and the shot great although I understand going small if you want less recoil cuz they hit harder than any other 3" ive ever shot

I got 130+ patterns with these a few days ago, with a 22 mph wind at 40 yds, make sure to clean barrel and choke good
