Title: Mossberg 835, Hevi-13 3-2-7, SSX .670

Hey guys!
I finally got a chance to pattern the ol' 835. She was shooting a little to the right, so I got the chance to dial her in today.
Shooting a bit high, but if I stick the dot on the waddles, should get a head full of angry #7's!

I love the evenness of the pattern. I don't get huge numbers due to my 20" barrel, but I believe this pattern will kill any tom walking if I do my part!

You have what every turkey hunter should be looking for, a great even pattern that will not allow a turkey to escape. It also appears that you have an excellent "halo" pattern out and around that 10" core pattern. If he moves or if you move, you've still got him. Congratulations.

Thanks,
Clark

I agree..I have one set up that will shoot 280's in a 10 @ 40 with the 3" 7's and another that will shoot 230's in a 12 @ 40. The second set up is much better for hunting.
