« on: March 29, 2005, 12:57:50 PM »
Hey all, just shot 5 different shells out of my 10ga. h&r 24" barrel with kicks 690 tube at 35 yards. Here are the results
winchester xx 5 shot 2-1/4 oz 112 in 10" circle
winchester xx 6 shot 2-1/4 oz 122 in 10" circle
winchester supreme 4 shot 2-1/4 oz 117 in 10" circle
federal turkey 6 shot 2-1/4 oz 148 in 10" circle
remington heavy 5 shot 1-7/8 oz 150 in 10" circle
I heard that temp. plays a role in patterning so I had to find out. Should I try a different choke or are these ok patterns? Witch one would you use? Please help! Thanks and GOOD HUNTIN!!
