Buddy uses a Jellyhead and 3.5" mag blends. Think his pattern is a bit blown but it puts birds on the ground.  I would suggest taking to William at SumToy.  He is on here as SumToy.

I have a .660 trulock in mine. Shoots great patterns with  3" - 3 1/2" Hevi MB, 3 1/2", Win HV #5. Carlson ported .665 3" Win HV or LB #4.

Indian creek .665 and Longbeard 3" #6 work great in my supernova.

If you haven't found what you want yet, try the Hevi Shot choke and 3.5" Mag Blends. 

Guy I know bought a nova, I cleaned his barrel very well and 1st shot got 242 (it was about 50 degrees with a slight cross breeze).  Not the highest number I have ever seen out of a 3.5" shell, but it was a great pattern.
