25 yards, about 55 degrees, not clean/not dirty barrel.
As for the wad, I don't know if this represents a damaged wad due to the ports on the JH, or if this is typical of what they look like regardless of choke. The wads all hit the target.
Shot 5 times, this is the last shot, no discernible pattern difference.
What do you guys think about the wad? I don't see any issues with this choke and the FCW - thoughts?

Those wads look very much like the ones I shot thru the .690 kicks with the same load. The wads I recovered had a more pronounced ring around it though, almost like a bubble flare in the same place as yours is flared in the middle. Don't know if it is good or bad though!

It looks alot different from the ones I have recovered shooting thru my .680 trulock. Mine are fully intact with the flares in the back opened every time. Im heading over to my buddys house where I pattern my guns at ill look around and see if I can find one to post a pic.

The scuffs align perfectly with the ports on the tube. I have a non-ported Hasting .685 and a Bansner .695 I can try too - the Bansner has ports.... May try the .685 just because.
