Title: H13 3/2/7 patterns
Post by: S.C.C on February 17, 2011, 11:39:14 AM
870 12ga. 20"brl. IC .660 and PG .670 H13 3" 2oz's #7 taped 40yrds.I have the IC sighted in for this gun already and shot predrawn 10" circles,PG was off some on POI. JH .660 puts up better #'s with this gun but to tight to hunt for me..
first poi shots..

That is a nice, even hunting pattern.  Good luck with that combo, longbeards beware

looked to me that your 10" circle was running towards the end of your pattern on the PG. you included a pretty big hole

That's a nice even pattern and pretty dang good for a 20" barrel.   :icon_thumright:

yeah....prolly should'nt have even posted that shot,had the gun sighted for the IC may have even missed most of the paper with the PG shot!! Im going to shoot again today while we have the nice weather...Ill post some better results from the PG!!
These short brls are a trick to work with,but I like'um!!

I have 20" barreled 870. I may have to try my IC .665 and PG .670 with the Hevi 13 2 oz #7 loads. But the IC .660 gave you some good numbers. Different chokes will have different points of impact sometimes.
