mudhen 0 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I don't shoot that combination, but I think .650 is pretty tight, even for the underbored Benellis. I find that my Benelli patterns blow if choked too tight, especially with larger pellets. Maybe try Win HV 6's? 3" or 3.5" - I kilt lots of toms with those shells before I switched to XR's and H-13. I'd buy 3-4 different 10 packs of shells and hit the patterning board Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Trapshooter1 10 Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 If I were you I would use federal flite stopper 3" #5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
e147716 10 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 you might want to check the nitro website - we have had great success with their recommendations but have not shot the Carlson Quote Link to post Share on other sites
410001661 10 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 I am using an Indian Creek .665 and a Super Nova Steady Grip and my patters were terrible with the Hevi 13 (3" #6). My best results were with Xtended Range 3" #6. Other good performers in my gun was: Winchester HV 3" #5 Winchester Double X 3" #6 Kent Diamond 3" #6 I did found that the trigger job made a HUGE difference. I found the factory trigger pretty bad.
