Title: 20, 30, and 40 yard patterns
Post by: econo on March 10, 2012, 01:52:06 PM
Shot these this morning with a very dirty barrel. Put on a new scope so I shot it about 9 times with low brass to sight in. Then I shot these last 3 patterns with hevi shot #7.
temps were very cool. Still pleased with the results on a dirty barrel and cold temps. All 3 pics is with a 10" circle.

this 1 st pic is 20 yards with just a 3" shell

Great pattern! I am amazed at how well it did with the dirty barrel.

Those patterns look very good to me.. Thanks for posten 20, 30, and 40 patterns. I think the closer patterns are just as important as the 40.

Nice patterns.  Don't sweat the dirty bbl...obviously it shot well...I don't think you would have shot better with it clean...250@40 ain't no joke for a 3" load.  I did all the super polishing and my gun shot awful.   It was a consistent shooter with the 7s, but now its not too hit.  Im shooting it and gonna dirty it back up.  Super clean bbls are not for all guns
