My beneli M2 20 w 26" barrel and IC .555 shot 165 pellets in 10"
Remington 870 w 26" barrel and Sumtoy 562-5 141 pellets in 10"
Wife's youth 870 21" barrel and Truglo SSX .555 143 pellets in 10"
All laser ranged funded 40 yards....50 deg and overcast. And all guns deep cleaned before first shot.
To add some perspective, those guns normally put up better numbers w Federal HW 7s and Hevi 13 7s.
Maybe im over choking them, I will try some other chokes next time.
For some reason the pics are too large to attach.

Looks like your beneli did about 59% and the other two about 50%. To put it in perspective the hw 7s would need to put up numbers ~195 for your beneli and 207 with the hevi 13. For the other two you would need ~164 with the hw and ~173 with the hevi 13.
How did the 20" look?
Jerry Jr.
Southpaw - the 20" looked good in all but the 21" barrel with the .555 SSX choke...it was a little spotty, maybe over choked?
The 20" pattern on the Rem 870 w 26" barrel Sumtoy 562-5 had 96 pellets for a total of 237 pellets out of (277 in the shell) 85.5%
20" beneli w IC .555 was 91 pellets for total of 256 pellets out of (277 in the shell) 92.4%
I am gonna mess with it some more today before our new snow here in KY. Youth day is sat here....and we open Apr 14
