Post MOSSY 835 AND MAGNUM BLEND
Gene, David & myself finally got together to go shoot Gene's gun. He got the new IC.675 choke for the Mossberg and 2 boxes of the new 3.5 Winchester Double XX #6's and 2 boxes of 3.5 Magnum Blend to shoot. We dialed the gun in with the Double XX ammo and fired a few rounds of Magnum Blend at 30 yards. We then fine tuned it in with the Magnum Blend and IC choke at 40 yards. This was the most difficult shotgun we ever worked with to find a working combo. I can't name all the chokes and ammo that was put into this gun to finally get it working. Gene is now a happy man and @ 40yds in a 10" 255 he ought to be. Look for him to kill a turkey with it.

Here are a few pictures and a video of our shooting day.

Wonder what that rig weighs? I'd say anything less then 9 lbs would be the ever living crappolia out of you for sure. PS. Awesome pattern at 40. Not sure a dragonfly would be able to avoid the smackdown.
