noisy box call that seems to sound like a flock of juvenile hens pecking their way through a wheat field

Slide that point of impact about half a pattern to the right and you'll be in the bizness!

Thanks for the help.any other lead load you can tell me to try with short barrel.

Why bother with a pattern like that.  Get your POA and POI to be the same then go hunt.

I'd be going to your local walmart and buying a whole bunch of those if I were you

Looks like a new world record. Never seen patterns anywhere near that good with Thugs. Those are LB numbers there.

My crystal ball shows a few flopping turkeys in your future.

Nice pattern.

I bought 10 boxes last year.shot 4 boxes and went  got 10 more boxes.THe gun did not shot like that from factory 100 to
120 pellets at 40 yds.ported the barrel went up to 170 to one 180, and add indain river choke shot 226,233, and last shot was 237.

I couldn't find Longbeards in my local market. I bought box of 3 inch 6 Turkey Thugs and got good patterns too. Didn't count the pellets because too many holes. Like the thugs. Had great patterns st 40 and 40. Wouldn't be surprised I you could stretch to 50. And they were $9.99 a box.

Those patterns rock! Wouldn't change a thing other then POI
