I did the final pattern testing for the bps 10 gauge today and i got it right where i want it for now im going to try some different stuff next year but the results are:
ALL IN A LAZERED 40 yd
Hevi-13 2-3/8 oz #5
10"= 180
12"=276
Federal Grand slam lead 2oz #5
10"= 100-110
15"= 220s-250
Federal Grand slam Lead 2oz w/ flight control #5
Same as other
Winchester supreme 2oz #5
10"= 125-140
12"=200-230ish
The feds seem to be more even than the wins but im happy for now being as how ive only taken one bird in my life over 35 yards but im going to tighten that Lead pattern up after season.
!!!!!! ANYONE THAT ORDERED THOSE FEDS FROM ROGERS NEEDS TO CHECK OUT MY OTHER POST!!!!!!!!!!!!

Try the lighter 2 1/4 10 gauge Hevi load in #5 - those shoot as good or better that the EM but at 1240 fps not 1080 -- that was my go to load for years and years - latter on I concluded that the #5 has ridiculous amounts of penetration more than I needed - so I moved towards triplex and straight #7's in the H210 -- they are pricey but the highest quality loads {nitro }
Ive been tempted to have them make a custom H210 with straight #6 or the lighter 2 1/4 with straight 6
the local sports store only carries the 2-3/8 oz shells but i may look into that
