Title: 870 20 gauge patterns
Post by: NorthGaHunter on March 11, 2012, 11:48:58 PM
I was patterning another 20 gauge today. I have not counted up all the targets but I think this may be the best from today.

I shot around 10 rounds from various chokes - Carlson .575, Remington SF, Indian Creek .575, Tightwad .570, Jellyhead .570, and Undertaker .582.

Remington 870 20 gauge - 26" barrel
40 yards
Indian Creek .575
TSS 9's
1 5/8 oz.

One target is 312/216/40 and the other is 265/242/66.

Very nice patterns.  The Indian Creeks seem to do a good job with that shot.

The tightwad did good but not as good as the IC.  I wonder if the tightwad just liked the 1 7/16 oz load better than the 1 5/8 oz.  I don't have any more of those loaded but I thought I may load up about 5 just to play around.  Most likely that would be after turkey season since the gate is about to open for all of us GA turkey hunters to go play out in the woods.
