Some awesome patterns!
I tried to pattern some tonight in a new 870. Couldn't break a 100 at 40. Tried Tightwad, SSX & an old Hevi approved super full.

Ssx was my best choke for the Remington till I got the trulocks.

It's been the worst one for me. I put a micrometer on my chokes SSX has the largest exit diameter.
The addiction will cost you time and money and alienate those close to you. I can give you the names of a dozen addicts — myself included — whose wives begin to get their hackles up a week before turkey season starts and stay mad until a week after it closes.

Yes Bink.  It was the federal heavyweight 6, 1.5 ounce load.  Remmy 870 compact and a Carlson's .570 non-ported. 
Big Al's "Take-em" Style Silhouette decoys Pro-Staff.

Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind te most.

WOW!!!!  Thats THE strongest pattern out of ANY of the HW I've ever seen!!! Have you tried the 7s ? If so, I'd love to see that pattern.
