RE: patterning with mossberg 835 and hevi-shot
Remington lists 301 pellets in their #5, 1 7/8 ounce Hevi-shot payload. Your pellet hit count is outstanding. I'd be interested in the 40 yard target. BTW... what constriction is your choke tube? I don't own a 835, but if I recall, their turkey chokes are a bit more open than most.
