I’ve been extremely impressed!

At the same distance there will be fewer 9s in that breast than #5 leads. Tungsten 9's blow right through them. Seeing is believing. Last edited by 2Dogs; 03/12/18 09:25 PM. "Why do you ask"?

I also got the Carlos's longveard xr choke. What is so significant about the new tss loads? I haven't kept up with them I'm just glad someone finally bought one of my chokes.

Yes I did and it shoots a pretty dang good pattern. I toted it for a season, woulda kept it if it could be shot without a scope or red dot sight. Without a rib on that barrel it was impossible to shoot right. It had a red dot sight on it but i had it took off because i didnt "trust" it...boy was i stupid. That gun is awsome with some kind of sight...without it its just painful. I hope you kill a bunch with it. "I dont quit.. And ill fight alone if i have to"

My 12ga 870 does 190-200 at 40yds with Magblends and kicks the chit out of you. This TSS stuff is just some crazy chit. Can't wait to try the 410. It's hard to kiss the lips at night that chews your a$$ all day long.

My circles could be adjusted as it’s not perfectly over the center of the pattern. 348 in the ten inch with 119 in the 20”. Thats 92% efficiency if my math I wrote on the paper at the time was right.
