Default RE: 20 gauge patterns?

ORIGINAL: Bullet Hole Bailey

I was not "pulling an ethics card". I was completely curious. Id love to know that my gun kept a pattern to drop toms at 70 yards but unfortunately it does not.

So does anyone have a target showing patterns of theyre 20 gauge? or know what kind of patterns they are getting?
I feel like I owe you an appology of sorts BHB.... that last post of mine came off the bat a little hotter than I wanted it too. I'm sorry.

To the topic at hand here.....

Beretta 391 Sporting 20ga
Primos Tight Wad .575
Hevi-13 1 1/4oz #6
40 yards
93 hitsin 10" with 226 hits total = 41.2%




It won't win any medals, but it will for sure whack one at 40 yards. It is mighty nice carrying a 6# gun that kicks like a pellet rifle.

FWIW, this was the best my gun did with what I've got. I'm sure with some more time and money invested I could get her to do better, but considering I don't shoot past 40 with my 835(that actually can kill birds at 70 yards by the way), its a rather moot point to pump $150 more dollars into it.
