New choke on my old Winchester 1200: Longbeard XR, 12 Ga, 3 Inch, 50 ,40, 20 Yards, Sumtoy .660
Please let me know what you see at each range. Thank you
Good lead killing pattern. I've got a 665 sumtoy in my versamax and mine patterns similar with 6 shot but I keep my shots under 40.

I misjudged an Osceola that I thought was about 40 and ended up being 50 and it turned out okay but certainly not ideal. For some reason the old 1 7/8 lbs 6s pattern better than the 1 3/4 in my gun.

Thank you for the reply. Yes, 40 and under will be my plan.

More pellets probably the reason ?

There's a few more in the 1 7/8 but not many. Those are discontinued so I wouldn't hesitate to shoot the 1 3/4 #6 load.

These were 1 3/4 oz, #6, 3 inch, 12 Ga.
That's what I'll go to once I run out of 1 7/8
Those LBs are no joke that 50 yd pattern says what Ive been saying for yrs 3 in the head he,s dead. :firefighter:
