Gun specs? Is that a 870 barrel with screw in chokes?
I have a 870 express 28 ga i bought when i was 15 and have thought about trying to kill a bird with it...

Yes 870 with Rem choke. This is using the factory full tube. I let the barrel get fouled after this and the patterns actually tightened up. This is from this morning at 30 yards.

I had a Briley extended X-Full which shot better with lead. After talking with Jason at Apex I switched to the factory full tube. These shell leave a lot of deposits in the barrel. I had deep cleaned the barrel before shooting the first pattern. Apparently these shells in this gun want a dirty bore. It has rained so much that I haven't been able to get another 40 yard shot in.
