Went out over the weekend and shot 4 different loads.
3" #5 Kent Diamondshot turkey loads
3" #5 Federal Prairie Storm
3" 1 1/4 oz #6 Winchester Super Pheasant
3" #6 Longbeards
All shot out of a Carlson's .575 turkey choke. Dirty barrel. Hopefully the pictures show up OK, numbers are on the pictures. Kent's were pretty poor, so I didn't even take photos of them. Super Pheasants would be great loads inside 30. Nice even patterns. Prairie Storms weren't bad inside 30, but weren't great. Longbeards really surprised me. I had one pattern @ 139 at 40 yards, but I pulled it pretty bad. POI is off, but I finally figured out my KY windage, so I should be good to go.

Side note, I think the wad from the Prairie Storm would have killed the bird at 20!
