Title: Mossberg 835 - 30 yard lead patterns
Post by: Borsy on March 17, 2024, 09:15:32 PM
I bought one of the new Mossberg 835 turkey guns in Greenleaf before last season. Here are a couple lead patterns at 30 yards from today. I'm shooting for a nice forgiving pattern that I can stretch to 40. Still need to shoot 40 yard patterns, but I think these will do the job.

I really can't tell. I have to see the whole photo in frame. Try resizing.

They are OK patterns, but nothing special. Think I might try cleaning the barrel first, but will likely try other chokes if that doesn't tighten the pattern a bit.

WTG on the re size  ;)
  Many scroll on when they can't pick the photo up in frame. My best patterns w/835 did better with the more open choke .690. The clean is important.  You will definitely notice the difference.

Use the search engine here. You might see something else to go by.
Keep posting em up when you crack the case.
