[How Does Your Pattern Match Up..]

krr6581,

 

i never take shots unless i feel confident in doing the job as quick as possible. i am not one that likes to see a runnning wounded bird, or a spinning coyote, or a 1 mile blood trail on a deer. if my gun won't pattern past 40, than i won't shoot past 40.

[stoeger 2000 choke]

shot a hevi shot load through the factory turkey shoke in mine today and it was the best pattern i got out of the gun but i think i will still go after market

thanks for the quick response mudhen. what is the benefit of using #6's over #5" or #4's.

 

if i plan on my shots being 30-50yds should i use 4,5,or6?

mudhen,

i am new to the forum and new to the semi-auto and made by benelli club. i bought a stoeger m2000 in camo with 26" barrel. it is alot nicer than the mossberg 500 i have been turkey huntin with for the last few seasons. have you used the jelly head in the stoeger? also how are the winchester 3" #5 high velocities? what is the best load/choke combo you have found in the stoeger if any?

 

i patterned mine with the factory turkey choke and some win. #4 high vel. at 40 yds. one pellet in kill zone. then i shot some 3" remington nitro #4 and had 8 in the kill zone at 40 yds. i want something that will lay the birds down and have no idea where to start. i shot the hs strut undertaker with my moss. and had no problems with the winchester's

 

this factory choke aint goin to the woods so what should i buy?

 

thanks, jle
