Title: 30yd patterns with my .410 turkey gun
Post by: schuylkillspur on March 30, 2012, 07:26:29 PM
Shot this pattern with my Remington 870 .410 30 yds with #7 hevi shot. Got 121 hits in the 8.5 X 11 target.

Never thought about a .410. Mine shoots like a rifle and thats why I never used it hunting. Look out turkeys if I can hit you, you will have a dime size hole in you.  But your gun put out a nice pattern, good job!

VA I did what some say is a no no, I removed the lead shot from a loaded round and replaced it with the same weight of #7 shot I removed from a loaded Hevi-13 round. I used Remington Express 3" since they shot the best with lead.
