    9 inch pattern at 50 yards

    Shot this today. Ignore the red dots.

    5 pellets in the black with all of them inside 9". Federal flight control 00 full power in my 18" 590a1.

    Doesn't get much better than this.

    Was that repeatable over multiple patterns?

    I've posted other targets with multiple shots on it. After 1 it starts to tear and makes a ragged hole that can't really show hits.

    This is my typically 50 yards pattern shot across years using flight control buck.

    Never sell that barrel / gun !

    What would it do at 75 or 100 yards ?

    This is the gauge that Dagga Boy should've had long ago when he popped a carjacker at 47 yards with an 870. Would've had a better result.

    If I knew him back then, I would have given him some Brennekes.......
    Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.

    Not much use from a bead sighted 870...

    Can't ask for anything more than that. Great pattern!

    I have an 870 and Benelli 14 inch that I installed beads, and tuned them, so they are B8 with slugs at 25 yards, but they are not “rack” shotguns. Much less exciting than Darryl’s deal, but I shot a turkey through the head at 44 yards from prone in a SC swamp, with an 11-87 and a tight choke many years ago. Same trip I slept in Miss USA’s bed, but that is another story.

    Oh sure, just drop that and move on.


    03RN, amazing barrel. My guns give me 14-18” at 50 yards with usually one or two fliers, but I’m okay with that. Maybe I need a Mossberg.
