Home Forums Birds & Dogs Turkey Hunting Browning Gold 3" Longbeard 5's

Shot a few patterns with the Gold/Longbeard #5 combination. Browning Gold 3", 24" barrel, Star Dot .6675, Hastings .685 40 measured yards. A bit too tight for the area I hunt so I am going to try them in a regular full choke.

The pic of the Star Dot needs rotated to the right. Did a recount of the 153 and ended up with 165.

Not much wiggle room up close, but they'd be in trouble at 50.

No bull there, best 3" #5 lead patterns I have shot yet. I am hoping these and my Thugs hit to same POI/POA so I can shoot the LB's on a 74 acre pasture I hunt on one farm then the Thugs in the close, tight timber on my dads farm.
