Patterned a few shells this afternoon and this was the winner of the bunch. Winn 3in HV #6 form a 870 with a 28inch barrel through my old Hastings .640 at 40 yards lasered, 142 hits. Didn't deep clean, just gave it a quick scrub before I shot. It was in the mid 60's with a little wind. I'm sorry the circle is so ugly but my wrist doesn't turn in a complete circle, but all the pellets counted were within 5 inches of the x.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons. However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

If you can do that with relative consistancy, I wouldn't look any farther for a shell!
Nice pattern!

Sweet, no need for HTL with a pattern like that!

very nice pattern, looking to improve on my HV 6 numbers as well, just barely over 100 at the moment.

Question is if you polish the barrel how much better will it shoot or will it effect the pattern negatively?

I'm sure the 28inch barrel had a lot to do with that. Great pattern there
