Title: SBE1 & tss#9
Post by: magedon44 on March 28, 2020, 09:58:10 PM
 I shoot a left hand SBE1 undertaker .665 choke and handloads tss #9s. Today at 40yds I shot 299 in 10inch.

Should I go 670 or 680 to tighten it up? Open to suggestions.

Do you have optic on gun. This assures consistent shooting with tight patterns....

I just did a bunch of patterning  and the best combo I had with my benelli and a5 was a carlson long beard choke 665. Both guns liked that choke along with federal tss#9. 50 yards had 203 in a 10 inch group and a great overall pattern spread. I tried 4 different chokes and that did the best.

Just tried an Apex 3.5" 9 out of my Carlson TSS Choke .640. It was really close to 400 in 10" and 300 in 20".

I would hunt 299 in the 10 at 40 if it looked uniform and was good at 20.
