Alright guys finally got to the range. I am shooting a beretta xtrema with an indian creek. 665 choke. Shooting a hevi-13. 3.5 inch #7, I got 244 pellets. Shootig a 3.5 inch mag blend I got 198 pellets. #6 yielded 122 pellets and a win extended range 3.5 inch #5 yielded 113 pellets.
what are your thoughts or comments, im leaning toward the #7.
I'd go on and lean all the way!!!!!!!!!!

Definitely the #7's. I'm not sold on the IC .665 in these guns. I know that IC makes a great choke but the .665 constriction just isn't right for these Xtremas. A lot of people have great results with these chokes in Crio + but the Xtrema bore diameter is .007-.008 larger. I'm playing with different choke constrictions from IC now, with and without wad catchers, to see what is best.

I am shooting the xtrema 2. I love the #7s in it. I am shooting a hevi-shot choke tube. I am averaging 280-300 at 40 yards with that set up. I only have one pic of a pattern, but I have been experiementing with it, and that is the best set up I have found. The pattern with them was also very even, no gaping holes or anything.
