Nice pattern, have you shot it at 20?  Pays to know what your dealing with at close ranges, as we all know most of our shots are well inside 40.

I haven't shot that load at 20 but I have the regular 6 shot long beards. It tight. Here is 30 with the magnums

You might get a lot better 20" if you try the 3.5" load. 10" might drop but overall 20" makes a hunting rig shine.

good looking pattern, think it will be real tight at 20 or less

It sure is. I killed one at 8 yards this morning I was worried I would miss him.
