used a jellyhead 660 in my mossy 500 12gauge!
35 yards 4ft by 3ft piece of wrapping paper, 84 total hits in 10 in circle, using win HV supreme1 3/4 oz no 6's.
you can tell in the pic the wind was blowing about 10mph to the left.

what do you guys think of this pattern??
:newmascot:
think i could have something if i raise my poa??
Hey Lon, PM headed your way.
:hello99: Lon0121!
I am using a mossberg 500 12 gauge this year as well, and I just patterned today.. Using a TruGlo gobble stopper xtreme choke tube and Hevi-13 #6s 1 5/8 ounce of shot...
Here's my pattern of the day...

Theres 188 in a 12 inch circle, maybe you should try this setup out!
the general rule is 100 in the 10 inch circle!
nice pattern! :z-guntootsmiley:
i think im gonna stick to regular lead shot, the heavi 13 stuff is a proven killer but its expensive!
i will try the rem nitro loads in the am, i have no 5's to try out as well
Try the remington magnum premiers as well... They pattern okay in my gun.
shoot at 40 yards and more people will be able to help you out. If you move your circle a little lower and to the left i think you could pick up some more pellets .
ok thanks!
we had a slight wind today and i rushed to test the new choke out! damaging winds at 65 mph came shortly after and power was lost! it will be more steady tomorrow!
i will test at 40 tomorrow! i will raise the poa on my sights tonight to compensate for a low pattern!

x2... I hope you get 1000 in the 10... :lol:

that would be crazy with a 1000 in a 10 in circle! :smiley-char092:

Well, I hope you get at least the 100 that you want/ need for your pattern... :)
It took 3 shells and I finally tried the hevi shot... That's where I'm staying :icon_thumright:
But I did get a reasonable pattern in the 10 with the Remington Magnum Premiers I mentioned earlier. I'll look on my old posts and see if I can find that picture... could still be on my PB as well.
What length barrel is your gun?

Not as even as I'd like, but if the circle was shifted to the left it would be more even.
mine is the 28 in barrel
Mine is as well.
went out today with the winchester supreme HV no 6's
and the remington nitro loads no 5
I was using the primos jelly head 660 and my mossy 500 12
first pattern was with the win HV n0 6's at roughly 30 yards:
