Title: "New" 870 20 gauge...LB #6 Patterns
Post by: HD28 on February 16, 2019, 10:00:00 PM
Here's a little 20 ga thumper I just finished up. Tightwad choke. Simmons Pro Diamond scope. Put slip on Limbsaver as a spacer for extra length of pull. Got to get it sighted in now. Gonna shoot Longbeard 6s or Federal TSS 7s.

Good looking stick. Post up some patterns after you site her in.

Shot one Federal TSS #7 at 40 yds.
Terrible with this .570 Primos Tightwad choke.
Gonna stick with the LB #6s for this season. Better pattern at 40 IMO.
May try different choke and TSS 9s next year.

Nice setup. I'll be setting my son's Youth 20 up soon. Hopefully I won't like it better than my 12 gauge 11-87. Ha
