Post by: jason5.9 on January 28, 2015, 06:04:16 PM
Once I figure out how to compress pictures I will post them up here but till then here are the results so far with my new versa max:

Winchester long beard xr - 264 in 10 inches
Remington nitro turkey - 184 in 10 inches
Federal premium turkey - 73 in 10 inches
Kent's ultimate diamond - 131 in 10 inches

All shells are 3.5, 2 oz, #6

I have a sumtoy .660 and some hevishot on the way to try next.

Heck of a gun! 

Remington nitro = 184 in the 10" at 40 yards
Kent Diamond = 131 in the 10"

At 39 degrees
Who would have thunk it.

I just bought one of these guns, but haven't had a chance to shoot it yet. 264 with the stock choke and Longbeards is very impressive, congratulations!  I would certainly be happy with those results.  I'm anxious to see what you get with the Sumtoy, keep us posted!

Unbelievably good for the load.  Remingtons of any sort have been the wort load for my 870!!!

Thanks guys, now you have me second guessing my own patterns, as in, I could have gotten the kent target and the remington target switched...  I will shoot them again once I get my Sumtoy .660 to reconfirm my numbers, either way based on my patterns from wednesday it goes without saying that I will be hunting with the Winchester LB's until something else surpasses 264...

This will be hard to beat, even with the new choke coming.  I sure hope it does though

If you want to be the 264..jump on into the hevi 7s

Man that some good shooting! I with everybody else those are good numbers for the nitro turkeys, that's the first shell I think everyone tries, cause there cheap shells, and there usually horrible for patterns, I would hunt with those any day of the week!
