I agree and it is always great to know what your gun will do but IMO anything past 50 yards is asking for problems. I try to keep my shots at 40 and under which with my setup always results in a quick kill. I just bought some heavyshot blend and I plan to pattern with the 3 after market chokes I have for my Benelli SBE. I have one that is for hevi shot but it wasn't as good as the custom one I got from Ballistic Specialties when I had them do some smithing for my gun so i never used it. This will be my first try at patterning a blend of 5,6 and 7 hevi shot so i'll try all 3 to see what works best.
