I went to fiber optic sights on my B-80 this year and I'm hooked...At 20 yards the pattern is about 3 inches and I'm dead on...At 40 yards my pattern is about 20 inches wide...I've never missed a turkey with a shotgun but I can see how it could happen if they are close...

My purpose to the sights were two fold, I also plan to use this gun in the woods this fall during dog season...I can use slugs for my still hunting and when the rogue hunters drop the dogs off, I can go with buckshot...
