Title: Shot the NWTF BPS yesterday!!!
Post by: wisconsinteacher on August 31, 2014, 12:01:13 PM
I shot my late father-in-laws BPS yesterday for the fist time with a SumToy choke.  With Hevi 13 #7 at 40 yards I got 289 hits in the best 10" circle.  The center of that circle was 5-6" above the point of aim.  I am planning on dropping that down so the center of the pattern is 1-2" above the point of aim.  I figure if I aim where the feathers meet the neck would be my aim point and the neck/head would get 100% of the pattern.  LongBeards #6 produced 229 hits at the same distance but the pattern was not as nice and even as the Hevi Shot.
