A local gun shop has some 3.5" 1.75oz 6's in the 10 count boxes for $20. I was thinkin about picking up a few boxes to  play around with and save for a rainy day when hevi 13 7's hit $40 a box lol and my stash of 7's runs out

What kind of numbers were people getting with those shells. I will be shooting them out of a 870 SM. If I could get 150's in the 10" at 40 yds I would buy up the whole lot.

Would be worth buying them and finding a choke that will work with them.  What kind of choke are you using now?

I bought two boxes of those shells last year at a Bass Pro Shops store.    I ended up using them to kill two nice Jakes for a local farmer who's over-run with Turkeys.

They patterned in the 140's in a 10" circle at 40 yards with my Indian Creek .660" choke.    I ended up shooting both Jakes at less than 15 yards.    It was bang... flop... dead for both birds.
