yep sure will, multiple people killed birds with the 3-2-7's last year at distance over 40yds, since you have the .660 jelly head i would go for the 7's, that choke and load combo are a match made in heaven, your pattern will fall apart before the pellets lose killing potential/power, good luck Zack

Go the straight 7's route and don't look back.  You will get a lot denser patterns vs the blends and with a good choke should be good to at least 55yds.

I don't like blends but would go with 6 in heavy.
But that is not what you asked.
