55 deg. light wind. Not a nice even coverage of the 10". Nice looking 6" circle with over 100 hits. Not much room for error. I didn't draw the 6" circle I covered it up and counted the ones that wasn't covered.

That's the best lead #5 pattern I have seen.  Looks like Winchester has got it going on.  Those shells are only going to go up once the demand goes up.  Better buy em why you can.

Tell me the weight of the payload.  And also could you tell me what the 3" payload is?  I'm not familiar with these loads.  Thanks.

The 3 1/2's have a 2oz payload and the 3 inch have a 1 3/4oz payload.

I will be getting me a box of 5's to play with mainly to see what I can get them to do at 15-20 yards. They got these loads right for people that want a good pattern at 40. I just hope at 20 it will be opened up to at least a 8-10" pattern, instead of a 4". Sounds like there might be  a lot of people that might be taking body shots at close range to keep from missing or a whole lot of beheaded pics on here. As far as a 40 yard pattern I don't know anyone in their right mind that wouldn't love these shells. The benefit with 5's  they would be good of you misjudged yardage a little. They should carry the energy to at least 50 no problem.

Looks good.  I have started to test the 5's.  They don't look as good as the 4's or the 6's.  That is a nice pattern.   :z-winnersmiley:
